It's also pretty clear she hasn't read the CBA.
FWIW, I believe the 29-2-1 vote at the owners meeting was whether to ratify the side letter modification to the CBA to include the penalties.

Although the vote is what it was for mine and several others here I think feel that procedure is or was screwed up and the punishment should have been shelved until after that meeting. I don't have a problem with them deciding to come up with a new policy, I don't have a problem with them taking it to an owners meeting to be voted on and approved, and then the punishment given. My complaint is the order in which they handled their business and the fact the owners would have punished for something that happened prior to the policy, prior to the vote, and prior to approval of said punishment.
That's not how business works, not how the law works. How about now they go back and punish all the teams that engaged in a bounty program since the inception of the league?
