It's coming and more heads will roll.


Congress' House Committee on Oversight and Reform has notified the NFL that it will review the Washington Football Team investigation.The letter, addressed to Roger Goodell, says he has until Nov. 4 to hand over the league's documents from the investigation to Congress.

Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk suggested the NFL won’t give up the information “easily.”
“The league surely won’t give in so easily. It’s concealing a fairly significant piece of information. People throughout the league are buzzing about it, and speculating about what the league is hiding by insisting so fervently — and on such flimsy grounds — to keep the materials private.”
Florio said a league source told him the investigation “is way bigger than even you think.”

I'm glad Congress has their priorities straight.

Why does Congress care here snd why should they be getting involved.

I’m quite interested in the outcome but this seems like more overreach

It's a witch hunt, pure and simple, and it's embarrassing that with all we have going on right now, congress is worried about this. I would think fixing supply chain issues or solving this border crisis would take priority.

Florio reveals his bias in the statement above by calling the NFL's grounds for not releasing it "flimsy." They're not releasing it for the same reasons Adam Schiff wouldn't reveal the "quid pro quo" whistleblower. People were guaranteed protection to come forward as part of that investigation. There's nothing flimsy about protecting their identity.

They're scared shitless to tackle the real issues so they're going after worthless low hanging fruit so they can virtue signal and thump they're chest and acting like they care and are doing something.

If protecting the names of informants was all the NFL was worried about, they would have produced the documents with names and any other identifying information redacted.

It's not that simple, professor.

The NFL needs to tell congress and those wormy ***** in charge of the Oversight and Reform committee (whatever the **** that means) to eat the biggest pile of **** they can wrap their hands around. Do they really think they can push around the NFL? With an economy falling off a cliff, rapidly rising inflation, gas and energy prices that make me want to warm my house with fire, a wide open southern border, a President that can't stand up straight, China launching nuclear missiles around the entire earth, and OPEC back in control of our wallets, why the **** are these destitute clowns worried about the Washington investigation?

I have advised clients about the release of documents and reviewed and supervised the release of many redacted documents. I'm not saying it is simple or easy, but it is certainly doable with regard to the vast majority of documents.

I'm sure you know everything about it.....it's just not that simple in this case....redaction doesn't guarantee protection when the scope of the investigation is as narrow as this one.

Its critical to our national security that everyone be fully aware of all the racist and homophobic joke that were made. Also the misogynistic comments too. We don't need Hillary's emails but we need these. Just like we don't need to look into Hunter or Nancy bank accounts, but if you write a check for $600 we need to audit your ***

I don’t really know. But there’s reasons the NFL has tried to keep this from coming out. My guess is the Redskins sexual harassment wasn’t an anomaly in the NFL. But no telling what’s in those emails & records.

Good. The fact that the NFL sent Gruden to the gallows makes me really curious what else is in those emails.

Actually, it might be good for the country if congress were focused on this issue....would keep them from doing more harmful stuff to this country....cannot remember the author of the quote, but some famous person once said...."Just be glad we don't get all of government that we pay for!" LOL

It's a distraction from the pathetic state of our government. While they're looking at spending and taking your money, taking your jobs and forcing your kids to take vaccines that don't last but 6 mo. and even doling out $450K to illegals.
It's all about changing eye level.

Man. Are we all so fortunate to live in a country where there is no waste, corruption, incompetence, or malfeasance at all in the Fed Gov so they have to do things like this to stay sharp??

They are trying to deflect anything DC.

I wish the NFL would just take a hard stand. Just tell them that they are embarrassing themselves trying to insert themselves into league business when there is no national concern and that the NFL isn't going to further their embarrassment by participating, but that if Congress wants to send people with guns to come get the documents, they are welcome to.

Maybe some of you guys care about this, but I don’t give a ****. I care that it cost me $120 to fill up yesterday. I care that my average grocery bill has almost doubled. I don’t care that somebody behaved badly at work. That’s a question for the judiciary, not Congress. And make no mistake, my wife and I are doing great financially, but even we are feeling the pinch. I deeply worry about families less fortunate than us, that were doing just fine 18 months ago. But by all means, let’s 17ing waste time on a football league.

I hope Roger Goodell gets caught banging donkeys, but the government is throwing up the smoke screen of Ignorance with this football stuff.
I'm with the Eagle fan. Income isn't bad and I'm still getting killed with inflationary BS and a shortage of necessary items. They'll probably start another scandalous investigation if this one doesn't get enough attention. Hopefully the midterms fix some of this.

Where was there sexual harassment?
