No idea.True, but are the NFL owners not subject to their own Code Of Conduct?
Last night during that weather delay they had 3 commentators talking in the tunnel area asking what do the players do when this happens.In news that no one could make up if they tried, Cleveland is hosting the National Massage Therapists convention this month. ?
I think the majority will be surprised if this isn't the scenario:
1. Buoyed into action by social media and the talking heads in the media, the NFL rejects the Robinson suspension in order to maintain good PR with the fans and ( most importantly) the sponsors.
2. Goodell brings in his own appointee so he can wash his hands to appear neutral ( but telling the man what his ruling needs to be) Watson is suspended indefinitely. If the decision is expected to come out next week, then the results are already known.
3. NFLPA takes the matter into court and no one knows how that will turn out, but the NFL comes out with their PR salvaged as much as they could. Ultimately, the NFL gets a happy ending.
4. The Browns are the most hated team in the NFL, while the team that facilitated the whole thing - the Texans - escape unscathed.
5. Meanwhile, Baker Mayfield leads his team to the playoffs.
How could I have forgotten that one? Thank you.6. Shortly after his return, Watson has a career ending injury.

...and many of them will be laughing at them.This has become too much a national political issue. If the NFL hopes to curry favor from fans and Congress, it must stand tough. Look for a lengthy suspension and Cleveland once again becoming the laughing stock of the league, but this time, without the smile and the rooting for the underdog that accompanied them since 1999. No one outside Cleveland will be rooting for them.
