What set of laws, rules, guidelines, philosophies is the arbitrator tied to? Meaning does he interpret law as it applies here, NFL rules, some combo of the two, basic ethical principles, or what?
He's a law professor at Penn State, and is supposed to be unbiased by definition. My guess is his interpretations are in order:

1. Legal
2. NFL - NFLPA Precedence
