Starlord reacted to Pariah in 2022-23 NFL Thread
Well, consider the optics as follows:
A player places a couple of parlay bets and get suspended for a full season.
Another more famous, more visible player has two dozen lawsuits for sexual misconduct and gets a six game suspension.
Twenty-four incidents, six games. That's one quarter per incident. That's a 15 minute unpaid timeout for each action that resulted in a lawsuit and a hush-hush settlement.
With those optics in mind, I don't think the league had any choice but to appeal the suspension. Otherwise, they come across as soft on misconduct towards women.

Almost finished with S2 of Only Murders In The Building. Really fun, well-written show.

Nope, it's not enough for justice, I agree. But Robinson is somewhat constrained by prior decisions.
What really angers me more, tho, is the gross complicity on the part of the Browns, due to how they structured the contract for this year. A 1/3 season suspension, when it includes losing 1/3 of the annual salary, is at least financially quite significant. This? The Browns made it nothing.
But Robinson's punishment can't be based on that, I wouldn't think.
OK, yes, it's not even slightly socially acceptable, but I hope a lineman smashes him onto the season-long IL in week 7 or 8. Nice compound fracture. Hose the Browns over too, by making it a nice 2 year recovery.

The Lions are ahead of the Bengals? That's just sad.
