2) How can the NFL suspend a player for pleading "no contest"? I guess "how" is not the right question, but why? That's not even a guilty plea. It would be one thing if he pled guilty to a misdemeanor or two, but that simply hasn't happened. I've seen this same quote about a one or two game suspension for "similar incidents," but does anyone know of any? Specifically, an incident in which a player pled no contest to a misdemeanor and got suspended by the league?

No contest means you accept the charges, doesn't it?? I think it's equivalent to admitting guilt (correct me if I'm wrong, lawyer types).

Whatever he pleads guilty to, he's susceptible to NFL punishment accordingly. I have no problem if the NFL decides to suspend him one game. That would be fair.
