it says in that article that the bears suspended him one game for being at the club where the shooting occurred--surely there was more from chicago than that?

I don't think Tank played in post season. And since his debt was paid in prison, there's a latin phrase...ex post facto...after the fact.....that's the part that Goodell is ignoring!

depends on what's in their contract. all that fine print about code of conduct, etc.
kind of like the military--there are laws saying you can't suffer double jeopardy, try telling the JAG that!

from the initial article: violated league policies, including the Personal Conduct Policy," Goodell said in a letter to the quarterback
