The NFL may be unpredictable from year to year on the field...but, when they are in the courtroom it's inevitable that the NFL will trump anything and anyone that stands in it's way. Especially, when everything is based upon a collective bargaining agreement that the players union agreed to.
I'm not quite sure how Kevin and Pat Williams think they can wiggle out of this without getting at least two games, if not the standard four games eventually. I understand losing the game checks is a significant amount of their salary. However, they could do themselves and the team even more harm by missing crucial games down the stretch, which could include playoff games.
My personal opinion (a fan's request) is to cave in and sit the first four games of the season. Browns, Lions, 49ers and Packers would be the games that you would miss. On paper, it looks as if this doesn't seem too daunting of a task to escape this stretch of four games with a 2-2 record, and possibly even better.
Plus, maybe we could add to Brett Favre's folklore by having him beat his old team shorthanded.

Yeah but that's not the American way. "Innocent until proven guilty--or guilty until multiple appeals have been filed and high price lawyers finagle the system."
