Well I guess this all but confirms that Goodell is gay for Tim Tebow
Well, I am 100 percent convinced that it wasn't an accident that he waited to announce the first punishment until 5 minutes after the Tebow trade went down. Bury the lead. Everybody blew off the story for a week until after Tebow's first press conference, and by then Goodell had firm control of the issue and the talking points. Remember, this is the same guy who didn't announce the player suspensions were upheld until like 4:30 ET the day before July 4 so that that story would get buried too. Everything Goodell does is PR hack calculated.

I don't doubt for a second that the commissioner has a huge influence on what stories run on ESPN.
It worked with getting Playmakers cancelled.

I was trying to think of the name at that show the other day. I wish the NFL didn't push to get it canned.

If Adam, Mort, and John don't do what they're told, more scoops will go to Jay, Peter, and Mike Lombardi.

I read ESPN: Those Guys Have All the Fun and they definately did. It has interviews with all parties involved.

Take it for what it is worth, but the rumor is that the suspensions will be significantly reduced in light of new evidence provided by the Freeh investigation. I believe this to be fairly accurate, but do not have a way to verify its accuracy without divulging who it came from. Take it for what it is worth.

I hope the convo went something like "If you get Vilma to ease up we will allow Vitt to coach the entire season at the very least."

Could be putting pressure on Benson to get the guys to back off. I for one hope it is Benson telling him to stay out of his business
I hope Benson is funding Vilma's case and Goodell somehow ends up resigning in shame. I think Goodell is slicker than Calipari's hair after 3 days without a shower.

Well...isn't this nice. I got tired of hearing this throughout the Drew Brees negotiations. Everyone has a source, yet nobody wants to say who it is. Name the source, or ban yourself.

I tell you what, if Payton does not come back this season and coach at least some games, I will ban myself for 6 months... quote it for posterity.

I am not the one calling for a ban. I put it out there, annotated that it was a rumor, supported the claim by offering to ban myself if it didn't happen. basically, STFU.

You are the one starting the rumor but will not give a source. You are the one who needs to STFU. We dealt with this all offseason. This shite is getting old. We want it to be true, but it never is. So, kindly, go frick yourself.

I'm not saying you're lying, but this has happened all off-season, and NO ONE was right. So people are pretty skeptical. Can you give us any more info?
