Welp, that was 6 months well spent.

So they overturn the suspension and apparently the internet firewall at work no longer blocks the forums.

Today is a good day.

Welcome back to the grid, Faf.  It's been too long!

The Patriots get Brady back, the NFL gets one last news cycle before next week (not counting the final roster cutting day), and everyone is going to tune in because no one has shut up about football for the entire offseason.

And we get Faf back. Looks like wins all around.

The NFL may have had the stronger legal argument, but no judge could let such a dishonest witch hunt stand.  Awesome!

As the Financial Post reported a couple days ago, "any fair-minded person ought to be repulsed that the decision will rely in any way on pseudo science."  The judge agreed.

Now the NFL needs to fire Goodell. 

I doubt he will do it, but I would love to see Brady sue for defamation.  So many lies told by the NFL.

How many more times is the NFL gonna get their butts kicked in court before they realize that the process needs to be changed (and maybe the people)?

Bountygate, AP, Ray Rice, now Brady.....
