Few comments on this. First off, though the official suspension was only 2 games, lets not forget that the Ravens released Ray Rice, who remains a free agent and may never play again, and the entire city of Baltimore pretty much had a collective bonfire made from Rice Jerseys. Though these aren't the actions of Goodall or the league, they are actions of those representing the NFL. Next and finally, I think the criticism of the only two game suspension is a justifiable one. But it really has nothing to do with Brady's suspension. It is not a reason to shorten Brady's suspension, but to lengthen domestic-violence-related ones. The contrast between the two is stark, but Brady likely cheated and deserves to be punished. And I thought he got off fairly easy.
Ray Rice's career is probably over. Brady, unfortunately, will go on.
