Someone needs to say that, if she thinks the penalties were harsh, she needs to at least give an injunction until the hearing on the 30th so Vilma has a chance to practice and learn the new defensive system.

But where is the NFL's proof that Vilma himself funded or organized a bounty system?

Kessler and Ginsberg are two very contrasting yet effective styles. Ginsberg is low-key and steady. Kessler is quick and high-energy

Honest question Pat, do you guys even want Vilma to return? I feel like all I have read is that it is a blessing in disguise so to speak that he is gone.

Really just curious, I have no idea how y'all are setup at LB outside of Lofton.

We could use him, but I'm fine with what we have now.

Mostly I want Goodell to be embarrassed because he acted like a total dick.

ETA: And I don't believe the 10k bounty allegation, and I would like for Vilma's name to be cleared.
