That said, there's probably no point in pursuing this analogy further. It's getting pretty farfetched.

But see, now this is where I like jdlea's analogy...

Even if there was wrong-doing (obviously not legal wrong-doing) wouldn't the punishment have to be stated in some kind of agreement or law? Isn't that a totally arbitrary punishment? I've said this before, basically other teams did "sketchy" things and got no punishment AND the rest of the league got a reward.

Now, in the end if we're just expected to accept Goodell as king and be done with it, that's a WHOLE bigger problem.
