Goodell did you do what villa says you did with the malicious intent to do so?
I plead the fif.


Would be a terrible decision for his case to make such statement.

Goodell then reiterates every single press release by the NFL backed by tags latest statement.


Press releases are not considered evidence in a court of law.

He wouldn't have a problem testifying


I actually think it'd be harder than people believe, but that's JMO.

Pleading the fifth is never a terrible decision. You cant risk incriminating yourself it is a constitutionally protected right in America. If he is directly asked if he meant to hurt Vilma, or if he acted without evidence or anything like that he will immediately plead the fifth no matter what.

No, they arent. But any good lawyer would condition Goodell to only say what is in those releases, ensuring his story never changed, then when he says them as testimony they become evidence. As I stated in my press releases, bla bla bla bulshit...

well we have a difference of opinion then. This might help you understand.
