Yeah I wonder if NFLPA knows something because they already say they won't appeal and want the NFL to do the same?

The clause about holding the owners to a higher standard than the players is coming to bite the league, I'm guessing.
Agree, when they have pretty much done nothing to Snyder & Kraft think it will probably cost them.
Then again Goodell can just change the decision to however long he wants it to be. If that happens have a feeling there will be a lawsuit coming.
Anything less than a full season is a joke IMO.

I think you're going to be severely disappointed. I'd be shocked if the suspension handed down by the judge is anywhere near a full season. My guess is 8 games at most, but I don't have much to support that other than the way the NFLPA issued a statement already, tells me it's not going to be too terribly long.
And if Goodell decides to overrule, and Watson appeals, will he get to play in the meantime? Going to be interesting
Oh……. I know I’m going to be disappointed…. I already know that.
I just hope Watson fails miserably if he plays.
Probably will do pretty well. I’m just hoping Joe Burrow always gets the better of him then the Steelers find their next QB & Watson fades into obscurity

Part of his punishment should have been requiring only male massage therapists for the length of his NFL career.

Yep. Goodell would hear the appeal and make the ultimate decision, although if he significantly changes it, it would likely result in a lawsuit. I suspect the NFL will gauge the reaction to the judge's decision and decide if they want to drag this out any further.
Part of most recent Collective Bargaining Agreement. Both NFL and NFLPA agreed a judge should be the neutral third party in power when determining cases such as this.
