Zolak just stated that the league has received the request to reinstate JJ and Dorito Dink. Apparently they had to send it 3 times for the NFL Front Office to acknowledge it.

The NFL confirms that the request to reinstate McNally and Jastremski from suspension is "under review"
EEI running with: if RG says the league never suspended them, then what exactly is the league "review"ing....
Before reinstating JJ and McNally the NFL wants them to accept the Wells Report. :q:Omar's Wacky Neighbor said:

In fairness to the NFL, they might have thought the e-mail contained a video of that Browns assistant coach beating up his wife.
Schefter says that the league asked for the suspension. The Pats posted a letter that reinstatement would require approval. I'm not sure there's anything tangible that shows that backs up Schefter.
So it's possible that the Pats did it of their own volition and the NFL subsequently asked for a review. I believe Schefter, of course.

My best guess:
ROG probably called Kraft before releasing the report. During the conversation he probably either asked or suggested that the dinks get suspended. There is no other proof. The Pats probably leaked this to Schefter but are not willing to go on the record.
Schefter keeps doubling down, and if it's a he said/she said between Schefter and the NFL, I know who I believe.

Patriots actually sent multiple requests to the league since Monday to reinstate JM/JJ. Still no ruling but NFL acknowledged request today.

Pats must've been told to send first 2 requests to the same address the Rice tape was sent to.

The Patriots' requests were sent to Troy Vincent and Jeff Pash.

FFS, Judge Berman vacating Brady's suspension had zero to do with race:

I like that they sent it to Roger's secretary who typed up the punishment memo for him.

Interesting. This is going to be about the games Exponent played with the two gauge pictures that I believe someone here discovered.
Edit: Now I see it was on last night.

“@CharlesRobinson: Sooo, #NFL absolutely, unequivocally didn’t suspend the two #Patriots employees. But the NFL has to clear their reinstatement? Incongruent.”
“@CharlesRobinson: Simple questions: Would #NFL have suspended the #Patriots team employees if team didn’t? And was that relayed to the Patriots? Yes and yes.”

The NFL clearly included continuance of the suspension as a stipulation in the punishment. It's not that hard to see what game the NFL is trying to play here. They are hanging the suspension on the Patriots as an admission of guilt. "And since you've implicitly admitted to their involvement, we concur with the suspension and wish to enforce it."soxhop411 said:
By now Kraft should know to have his iPhone on record whenever he has a conversation with a league official.
Yeah, I doubt Kraft is spending a minute in court if he exposes NFL corruption against his team. If nothing else, he can use it as behind the scenes leverage.Myt1 said:
Also, if he's out of MA, it could be legal.
The best one is from a school teacher in Reno who writes a three page letter about how guilty Tom Brady is and how disgusted she is when she sees kids wearing his jersey -- she demands that Berman further fine Brady and give the money to concussion research.
Berman was writing letters to TheoShmeo.WayBackVazquez said:
I can't wait until he posts the results of his home football deflation test to the docket.
So are there any letters in support of Goodell, or is Berman selectively rubbing it in the NFL's face?Stitch01 said:
Based on the crazy that I've seen on the Internet, Berman must have received letters from fanatics on both sides.
You have to imagine the Venn diagram overlap between 'people who are legit crazy' and 'people who still send letters' is statistically significant.
Yes I see the Twitter for the guy posting the screen caps. Where is Judge Berman posting them? Is this a social media thing or is he attaching them to the case file?edmunddantes said:
