It's still a very melancholy feeling though. Being able to say I told you so to so many people who played the 'you weren't there, you didn't see what happened' card seems like it should be more satisfying. Instead I feel rather disgusted after seeing that video.

I do believe the NFL's claim that they hadn't seen the video until recently though.

Still it was pretty obvious based on the original evidence that this offense was much worse than a 2 game ban.
