If Vilma has rattled the cage in such a way that the Commish is willing to reduce his punishment by 50%, at what time does Sean P. do the exact same thing?? Also, what about the entire group of suspended/punished players? The possibility of a settlement itself shows a great deal of weakness in the NFL's ruling. Personally,I hope the entire situation changes so ole Rog' can pretend to keep his reputation and the entire NFL's rep in tact....PRECEDENT IS A BITCH!!! WHODAT!!



First you have to understand the difference between Villma and SP. SP is managament and would like to coach again in the NFL, maybe for another 15 to 20 years. JV has 1 to two years playing time left, maybe 3. Payton can be blackballed by the NFL and has a lot to lose in terms of a future career. VJ's time is now, SP's time is in the future.

Don't forget that Vilma has the Player's Union to back him up which is way more powerful in terms of accomplishing things with the league. Since there is no coaches union, SP is just one man standing alone.
