Bountygate
NFLPA move doesn't change 'bounty' player punishment appeals | NFL.com
Steve Wyche - Although the NFL Players Association has filed a grievance challenging NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell's authority and jurisdiction with player suspensions in the Saints bounty case, it does not affect the players' appeal rights. (Thanks, jeff lb, for dropping this link into my story earlier today.)
NFLPA: Biggest problem with Saints suspensions? NFL won’t give them any information | Yahoo! Sports
Doug Farrar - With all the talk about the right or wrong behind the NFL's decision to suspend four current and former New Orleans Saints players for the roles (both alleged and admitted) in the recent bounty scandal, perhaps the most troublesome aspect of the process is the extent to which the NFL Players' Association has asked the league for specific information regarding the process Roger Goodell and his minions went through ... and hasn't received it.

Mike Florio - When the NFL initially pulled the sheet off the Saints' bounty scandal on March 2, the allegations seemed highly credible because it wasn't in the league's interests to wallow in the fact that one of its teams had cheated during a playoff run that culminated in a Super Bowl win.
