Should the NFL ignore it like MLB ignored steroids? No. Like the NBA ignored gambling. No. But constant coverage and always looking up to the sky to see it fall doesnt do the league any good.
Thank goodness for OJ... give vultures something else to circle for awhile.

Welcome to a day in Goodall's life, he has to manage a massive asset that burps out money every second of every day, he has a few things to do in his job, and one of them is to not kill the golden goose.
With the harse penalties players are still getting in trouble, if anything it means he needs to toughen up.
NE was warmed 3 times individually and the league was warned before week 1, about this very thing and he did it anyway. I have no idea if this is a massive advantage or a small one, but he knew he couldn't do it, and he did anyway. If he doesn't slap the HC silly all the players think there is a double standard against them, and they'd be right. He had to hammer the coach the way he has the players.
