This is why the NFLPA needs to be concerned less with player discipline issues and more with player compensation issues in the next bargaining agreement negotiations.

And it's not even just that, you have cry babies like Brady and J. Harrison who b*tch and whine about the whole structure of player discipline. So that becomes one more bargaining issues, and the league uses that to get more favorable deals when it comes to compensation issues.

I'm sure if I'm an average player, I would rather have Goodell be judge/jury/executioner on player discipline matters if that means that I get favorable compensation and do away with these loopholes that allow teams to f*ck over players.
