Clearing up some misconceptions in the wake of today's press conference

Wow, this is like trying to explain algebra to a dog.

Look man, you're ignorant. There's no pretty way to say it. You just don't know what you're talking about. However, where most people's ignorance could be excused, yours cannot due to your persistence in trying to push your ignorance onto others.

I'm sorry there isn't a Sesame Street episode to explain this to you. I'm sorry for whatever went on in your life that made you too mentally inept to understand the basic concepts that we're talking about. But you need to accept the fact that you are completely out of your depth and stop wasting my time by being so wrong.

I've seen enough of your comment history to understand that this is your whole shtick: you're a troll who fires off inane arguments then berates people who don't want to talk to you by spamming their inbox with ignorant and idiotic statements.

You clearly have some massive deficiency in your personal life, but for the love of fucking Christ, stop whining to other people and annoying them. Let's end this once and for all:

three very recent cases apply to the legal options for Kraft

First, Ray Rice's case reached a settlement. There is no legal precedent as a result. Rice's lawsuit was over being punished twice: once on the first suspension and again on the indefinite suspension. Kraft wasn't punished twice so this case has no bearing on him whatsoever.

Second, Peterson's case was about the NFL applying new discipline retroactively and the key part of his case was, as Judge Doty said, "Henderson simply disregarded the law of the shop and in doing so failed to meet his duty under the CBA. As a result, the arbitration award fails to draw its essence from the CBA and vacatur is warranted." Again, because you're too stupid to figure this out on your own, Peterson's ruling was about Goodell's powers under the CBA, which Bob Kraft is not protected by.

Both Peterson and Rice were disciplined for off-field actions. Neither were disciplined for on-field actions that harmed the integrity of the league.

Finally, the case of the Rams equipment manager that was heard by the Missouri Supreme Court took four years for a ruling and only applies in the state of Missouri. The court also arrived at the ruling by choosing to misinterpret the meaning of "financial interest" in 8.2 and saying it contradicted 8.3. That doesn't hold water since 8.1 says the owners "select and employ" the commissioner. You can't have a commissioner who doesn't draw a salary and the court knows this.

But more importantly, the Missouri case was built on the fact that, and I'm quoting from the per curiam here, "the National Football League’s dispute resolution procedural guidelines setting out the essential terms of arbitration were not referenced in Mr. Hewitt’s employment contract and, therefore, were not incorporated into his contract." However, these terms are in the contract Kraft has with the league and a part of his contract as an owner of an NFL franchise.

The reason the Missouri Supreme court heard the case is because the St. Louis County Court wrongly ruled that his employment contract defined his arbitration process, which it didn't. Kraft's does.

And all Hewitt v. Kerr did was get him a writ of mandamus. Four years later and he ended up with a court order to a hearing by a neutral arbitrator.

You're wrong on every single level about every single point. Please, shut the fuck up and stop wasting my time you inept, mouth-breathing dipshit.
