Re: Tagliabue vacates all player discipline
Tags did what he was hired to do and that wasn't to actually mediate anything.
He just declared this to be a tie. Tags should become a boxing judge.

Re: Tagliabue vacates all player discipline
It does sound a little fishy. By agreeing that the charges were accurate, he lets Goodell off the hook but he drops all discipline to (hopefully) avoid future litigation. At least that's my layman's first blush

Very fishy
Irrefutable evidence looks like the biggest source of smell, Mr Museum Tagliaboo turned it into a lifeless display case with the "contamination" (Greg Williams) still banned.at one point of my life I was exactly Pi years old

Re: Tagliabue vacates all player discipline
Threatening to sue the nfl makes some things happen and other things go away. Goodell should be thinking about retirement soon, he has irritated enough people and hasn't done anything posotive. Turning the game into less hits and protecting anyone who carries the ball is ruining the game. Flag football anyone?

In a 2003 BBC poll that asked Brits to name the "Greatest American Ever", Mr. T came in fourth, behind ML King (3rd), Abe Lincoln (2nd) and Homer Simpson (1st).

Re: Tagliabue vacates all player discipline
Looks like he bought the argument that they did bad but, in their defense, they were giving in to pressure from the coaching staff. If it hadn't been for how long it took to get to this point, it wouldn't be a big deal.
It's good to see an outside check on the limit of Goodell's disciplinary authority.Festivus
His definitions and arguments were so clear in his own mind that he was unable to understand how any reasonable person could honestly differ with him.

Re: Tagliabue vacates all player discipline
it's all of the lawsuits that have forced Goodell's hand on these rules IMO. And Vilma is proceeding with his defamation suit against Goodell even after this ruling.
