But by your standard no one should do anything about Pacman since he hasn't been convicted. That is silly.

It is "their" league, whatever that really means. The NFL is nothing without the players and fans who love to watch the most exiting sport in the world. Who would really watch a league with subpar performers but stand up citizens in the community? Granted in a perfect world the NFL gets both. Just seems like all of a sudden a new commissioner is trying to make a name for himself when nobody gives a shit about him. I'd rather see Pacman on sportscenter running for a 90 yard touchdown.....that's just me though. I understand everyone else's opinion and can't argue for a guy like Pacman too hard. Just hate the Uncle Sam approach of the NFL lately.
