Internal Investigations

[Mr. Scot]

This sounds familiar...

This reminds me of the last time I heard a team saying it was going to do an "internal investigation" regarding scandalous allegations. Remember how that played out?

Who was the head coach of that team again?

(or the GM for that matter)

Maybe those guys should have gone to Dallas instead.

You mean the NFL has favorites and there's a double standard?

Ya don't say!

Jones is crazy AF, doesn't pretend to care, is in a large market with a fanbase that is fanatical and probibly isn't blackmailable like the other owners who hide behind their PR mirrages. They would need all ownership factions to come agaisnt him I would guess. 

DS will get off. He is a scum bag but he is with the pack so I would guess he is safe. Ross is interesting. I'm not sure who he runs with and who would protect him.

Haven't listened to the podcast, but noticed it references the topic of Jerry Richardson.

Again, for the like the one millionth time - Non disclosure agreements are bullshit and need to be illegal. I can think of very few examples when one should be used. Just call them what they are: a get of of jail feee card for the rich. 
 

it’s not fair to other people who may want to break the law but don’t have stacks of hush money either

I've seen arguments both ways.

Sometimes a settlement like that is the only justice of victim can get. At the same time, it legitimately feels like the person paying is "getting away with it".

We know Richardson had at least four because those were reported. Wonder how many he actually has.

Likewise wonder how many Jerry Jones has.

A team wanting to launch it's own investigation is in DEFCON1 damage control mode. Regardless of the findings I don't see Snyder voluntarily stepping down like JJR did.

Yeah, I’m sure the cowboys and Washgton are going to be very thorough and make sure there isn’t a stone unturned. A complete investigation filled with integrity. 
 

just like when duke did their own investigation when the rumors were flying about the obvious bribe they gave Zion to attend duke. 
 

Duke AD: did you set up Zions mom with a no show job and a nice house?

Coach K: no

duke AD: case closed

The NFL requires non-disclosure agreements to be reported to the league office.

At the time, there was a load of speculation that Richardson had more than the four which were known.

Had those been discovered, he could have been in big time trouble with the league.
