| Re: League new conduct policy I would hope that all but the dumbest of players got the message. None of them want to lose a whole season of pay and the loss of value the rest their career. Its funny but from what most of the players are saying they seem to embrace the new policy. |

| Re: League new conduct policy I am somewhat dubious of the section about sanctions for clubs. Is this over-arching or will discretion be used? For example I have no problem with the league bringing down the hammer on a team who drafts or signs a questionable character guy but what happens when an apparently upstanding guy has a problem. If a classy guy like James Thrash or London Fletcher goes out and gets in a bar fight tomorrow night would the Skins be culpable because they are SKins? That makes no sense really. In fact unless discretion is used the whole idea is almost useless because it offers less reward for teams bringing in character guys versus no charcters guys. If a team is going to get fined or whatever whether they should have known or not then they have less motivation to bring in only high charcter guys. It doesn't totally eliminate the motivation but is reduces it. |

| Re: League new conduct policy Quote:
"the commissioner will consider all relevant factors, including the history of conduct-related violations by that club's employees and the extent to which the club's support programs are consistent with best practices as identified and shared with the clubs. Recommended best practices include having a full-time club player development director and a full-time club security director." I think as long as the club covers all bases with support programs and such, the commissioner will consider that before bringing down the hammer. Individuals are going to do what they do, but if the club can show that they have done their part, I don't see that club being punished. | |

| Re: League new conduct policy This is good news for players that don't know what it means to play in the Nfl. However, I wouldn't apply suspensions to players that get provoked ina club or in a bar. |
