My thoughts too. Seems like a lot of football revenue is classified as non football revenue, which hurts the players in salary cap calculations.

certainly think the optics are extremely bad of Hurts being without sleep for possibly 24+ hours when given a possible decision.


This ended up being incorrect. He did sleep.
Also the fact that $1000 in 2015 is like $2000 in todays dollars

How do we not know this guys name yet? TD is slipping.
NFL is going to catch the first guy this time, most likely resulting in a suspension
