The weakest union in professional sports is demanding something? Let me know how that goes.

Re: The Buttery Males Thread
 

650,000 emails.

Jon Gruden's alone leak.

On the NFL's selective transparency, and why Daniel Snyder has been protected at all costs—even if the cost is the credibility of an eight-figure investigation.

Re: The Buttery Males Thread
 

Powerful as he might have seemed, Gruden is just another cow. And Washington owner Daniel Snyder is a rancher. And NFL owners, in private settings, aren’t shy about reminding people of these realities.

This, then, was a public show of them.

Gruden’s emails became public as a result of an independent investigation the NFL commissioned into the workplace culture of the Washington Football Team—a probe that was prompted by reporting in The Washington Post that pointed the finger right at Snyder, among others. The investigation took 11 months, and its completion was greeted by the NFL with a broom swiftly sweeping it under the rug.

The league released the news just before the four-day Fourth of July weekend, refused to make specifics of Beth Wilkinson’s findings public and, presumably, crossed its fingers that questions directed at Snyder’s involvement would simply go away. Remember, this is a league that published a 243-page report on Tom Brady’s deflating footballs, a 144-page report on Richie Incognito’s harassing teammate Jonathan Martin, and a 96-page report on Ray Rice’s domestic violence case. All of those reports can still be found, in full, online.

Those reports are on the cattle. Conveniently enough, you won’t find ranchers implicated in them.

-- decent writing found in a sports article? Surprising. Most sports articles read like a bot writing from a box score.

What I do not understand is this. The owners keep Goodell in power. Ok. So if DS was forced to sell would the next owner not vote for Goodell? I would think he or she or they would because Goodell getting helping get rid of DS is why he or she or they would be there. Also doesn’t Goodell ever get sick of the bad image DS brings to the league? It seems to me that every other owner and Goodell would want nothing more than to oust DS?

Nailed it.

I can only hope Snyder isn't as untouchable as he looks right now.

"No"

- The NFL

The NFLPA is gonna have to try harder than that to see what else the league is hiding.

Re: The Buttery Males Thread
 

The NFL wont release WFT emails.

Re: The Buttery Males Thread
 

Even if they did Snyder will only somehow grow stronger.

Re: The Buttery Males Thread
 

Still can not believe that the league did a massive investigation on whether Brady deflated footballs. I mean what a fucking clown show that was. What a waste of time and money. Of all the things they could spend time on making the game better they went FBI on deflated footballs. What a bunch of idiots.

Re: The Buttery Males Thread
 

Ok , just trying to understand something here. What was it that made the NFL go after the Owner of the Panthers a few years ago but this isn't worth the trouble? No way Gruden and Allen had 650,000 emails between themselves . While I don't think this is the norm for the whole NFL, ...it happens and it needs to be stopped.

220 page report on deflating footballs, but Wilkinson only had to submit an oral report on decades of Redskins dysfunction.
