Today the NFL made the first big ruling of many to come in the next few weeks over the players suspended for conduct issues. The NFL has suspended Adrian Peterson for at LEAST the rest of the season - saying in a long ruling that the earliest Peterson can be re-instated is April 15, 2015. Goodell also said in a letter to Peterson that he's not convinced the running back is truly remorseful for his actions and what's worse is Goodell is not convinced Peterson might not commit further abuses on his children based on how he has responded in the media, through text, and through court adjudication.
The Players association plans to appeal the ruling to an independent mediator. I will follow the story.
