A good example: He had marijuana possession charges dropped because his mom magically claimed it was all hers. Even though the stuff was in his bedroom in his house. So because he didn't get convicted for this he shouldn't be punished by the league?
The legal system in this country is far too faulty and often far too permissive to use it as anything more than part of the equation.

It sets a dangerous standard of suspension. What is obviously bad PR for the league can change depending on how the NFL interprets those actions. No legal conviction is required so its based on the NFL's opinion. Don't think that Paul Tagli would have handed out such harsh punishments.
