How does the NFLPA help him make more money? It doesn't


Which is why he gave it to Yahoo Sports.

exists to protect players like Scott Fujita.


And Vilma and Harper and Will Smith. The interests of these players and the Saints organization are not 100% the same but not mutually exclusive.

That said it wasn't the NFLPA that leaked the audio. It was the Sean guy who gave it to Michael Silver of Yahoo Sports.

The NFLPA having it means nothing except that they may have thought about telling the league "hey take it easy on player suspensions or this goes public"

Anyone got another theory of how the tapes get into Fujita's possession and thus to the NFLPA?


You sure NFLPA had tape?

Under an inaccurate headline, which claims that the NFLPA actually had possession of the tapes, Mortensen explains that it’s not known whether the NFLPA actually had possession of the tapes.


Regardless, there are other ways to get a copy of that tape besides these 2 methods you say are the only 2 options. It's been months since that game, and it's certainly plausable that Fujita was given a rough cut or some video to view just bc of his close relationship with Gleason and project.

OK. I missed the fact that Mort's article didn't actually state that the NFLPA had the tape.

Definitely a misleading headline, and that means that most of what I wrote is moot. Which is good, because I really don't want to think badly of either Gleason or Fujita.
