Honest question: are you joking?
There is no way, in a million years, that the NFL and Roger Goodell were going to let Bill Belichick (of all fucking people) get the best of them on anything, even if he was 100% correct.

This is Theo's hurricane.

I'm not aware of any evidence that Goodell, or the NFL for the matter, are good at anything other than extracting compensation out of a captive audience.

Brings own helmet…would definitely bang.
My company's filter blocks SOSH. And there's no LTE signal strength in my office. This is my third stint today sitting in my car checking this forum.
Can't someone just send Roger Goodell to the depths of Hell!
I may be kidding.

Shefter on SportsCenter now: expects ruling tomorrow, hoping for today. He has no idea. Expects to see lots of Ryan Lindley tonight.
I was hanging out with Corporal Klinger last night and his sources indicate that nobody knows when this is coming down.
Dude, I'm about to get on an airplane for six hours. You can feel my pain, right?RedOctober3829 said:
If Berman had a sense of the dramatic, he'd release the decision around 8PM tonight and we could watch live reactions from the Pats-Giant game.
I know a guy who knows TheoShmeo, and he tells me to expect the ruling in the next 36 hours. Make of that what you will.
Cant you just envision both teams lined up for kickoff, loud music suddenly blasts out over the PA system, and Berman comes out of the runway doing the Fargo strut.bankshot1 said:
(pleasepleaseplease: someone mock up a gif of VKM strutting, with Berman's face superimposed-ed over it)

1. As regards Katie Nolan, definitely would welcome into my huddle if I were less old (or more wealthy), less married, and less religious.
2. As regards Theo's "prognostications":
a. He is only reporting that which he has heard, so I probably wouldn't deem it a prognostication.
b. It probably is generally the less sound choice to go public on predictions having a 50% chance. If Judge Berman pseudo-committed that he'd promulgate by the end of the work-week, and if Wednesday has passed, then it's ceteris paribus a 50% shot for Thursday and the same for Friday. ...same reason as to not openly predict upcoming-baby gender. When you're right on a 50% prediction, no one will think you're hot stuff, and if you're wrong, everyone will be on your case.
3. If I worked for a company whose Internet filtering filtered out SoSH, I'd suggest the alternative that SoSH be de-filtered - however, the employee would not be allowed to log in and thus become capable of availing himself of P&G, the home of NSFW material. I don't view profanity per se to be NSFW, but we really don't find that much effing profanity here.
4. If I were less mind-rusty, I'd compose a post about the difference between justice, which involves following the law whatever it may be, and fairness, which involves restoring Brady's good name presuming that he is as innocent as he has asserted and as I believe. I think a man as accomplished as Judge Berman can write an opinion which sells the fair verdict as also being the just verdict (in the pathetic case that the just verdict would actually be that Goodell can do all the malice he wants under the current CBA).

If the ruling doesn't come out today will the thread title be changed to #DFG: Rat Shit Dumplings and Chinese Democracy?

I'm not sure what the credits apply to but if they can be applied to Gen. Ed. credits I'd rather take this than some of the other classes that (at least in the old days) fulfill those credits like Foods & Dudes or Soils.
The crowd tonight at the Razor will be off the hook if the Berman decision is released during the day today. Either way the decision went, beer sales and crowd noise would be way up from the norm for a PS game, folks would either be really pissed or elated.
The way to get around this is to make mutually exclusive predictions on both sides of the coin flip.bernardsamuel said:

I don't think they'd really have any more insight than anyone else. Their track record isn't the best.MuppetAsteriskTalk said:
EDIT: Though I guess that doesn't really answer your question.
I know me. I think it's coming today. But if it doesn't, the thought that it will give some of my friends here giggles is a nice one.
I actually hope from a tea leaves perspective, however, that the decision gets released tomorrow. At the margin, I think today is worse in that it leaves Friday for a hearing on a request for an injunction by the NFLPA/Brady.
