After the public relations disaster the National Football League went through last season, I didn’t think there would be any appeal heard that would reduce an NFL player’s suspension for domestic violence a total of six games.
Today, the NFL made me look like an idiot. They’ve reduced Greg Hardy’s suspension from 10 games to four for whatever reason.
Let’s sit back and think. Tom Brady deflating footballs amounts to the same punishment as Greg Hardy beating up a woman. Bravo, NFL.
