    And so does Dave Zirin. He sent out this tweet Sunday night: "One could not imagine a more crystallized way to end this awful, scandal scarred NFL season."

    (All I can add is: Read him. You may not always agree with him, but he's got the big brass ones.)

                This was Goodell's bargain with Kraft in order to make up for the fines d suspensions coming next year for the cheating.
                Where else would you rather be than right here right now?

                  It's dumbfounding. I think they made a choice to roll the monetary profits dice, betting that the loss of older fans will be outweighed by manipulating an easy-to-convince newer generation weaned on and inculcated with the philosophy that the end justifies the means.

                    Re: Patriots Super Bowl Win Provides Storybook Ending To NFL Credibility

                    The NFL jumped the shark for me last night. It sort of reminds me of my proclamation that if the Knicks signed Latrell Spreewell then I was done with the NBA. They did and I think I may have seen one or two partial portions of a basketball game since. Last night was the worst possible ending for this season and I'm not sure if my fandom will ever be "reinflated" so to speak.

                      It is the perfect ending to a train wreck of a season regarding credibility and integrity.

                        Very curious to see the outcome of the NFL's investigation.
