Sources: Jonathan Vilma filed appeal and requested NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell recuse himself because of bias and partiality. #saints


I agree, but dayum!

All four players in the bounty case have filed appeals with NFL, in advance of today's deadline. Vilma is asking Goodell to recuse himself.

What happens if he wins? And I mean really wins, like the judge loudcaps Goddel in the courtroom. Does the NFL world implode?

No, they'd probably just fire Goodell and move on. I think Goodell has pissed off enough fans that his replacement would be quickly welcomed so everyone can move on and get away from all of the off field drama.

I still think he's got very little chance of winning, but if the NFL released a manipulated PDF, who knows what smoking guns Ginsburg will find when the courts make the NFL release evidence.

The problem is will any of it be authentic and credible. So much has been forged and manipulated already.

It's going to the courts, and Roger is trying like hell to keep it out. He seriously overplayed his hand. If this suit goes forward, he's frickED!

So where does this appeal go now? Back to Berrigan in court? Or another "appeals panel"

Vilma's lawyer was pretty impressive in front of Berrigan. Would love to see the string of witnesses testifying "No, never saw anything like that.", then bring Cerullo & GW up for grilling.

For now it goes right back to Roger, and then after he rules, I think there may be another appeals panel, and then probably back to court. I'm not 100% sure.

He's pissed off the entire NFL fanbase in other ways, most recently letting the replacement refs go for as long as they did.
