I don't think it takes a major leap of logic to say an owner who is sending these skeevy, pervy emails that objectify women with the kind of language that was being used
Now look, does it go as far as the John Gruden emails?
Maybe not, but we saw what happened to Gruden.
And if owners are held to a higher standard than everyone else, I don't think it's a stretch to say that what Tisch did undermines or puts at risk the integrity of the NFL, NFL teams, or NFL personnel.
You just got to ask yourself, is this the way we want owners of these teams to be acting?
So if the league really wants to do something, it can.
But here's the problem.
You got other owners.
that won't want a standard like that to be applied to one, because then the concern is it gets applied to others.
And that's why it took them so long to finally wake up on Daniel Snyder.
It wasn't until they thought Daniel Snyder was stealing from them
through the visiting team pool and the alleged accounting irregularities that the commanders were doing to try to hide that money and move that money around.
That's when it became a problem for the other owners.
But other owners are not going to want that same standard to potentially apply to them.
So they're going to be very reluctant to apply that standard to Steve Tisch.
Well, this all goes back to when Matt Ryan got the job as president of football operations.
Someone from, I believe, the Sun-Times reported that if Ian Cunningham, who interviewed for the job Ryan got, eventually became the GM, the Bears wouldn't get the compensatory draft picks because Matt Ryan is running the football operation.
So Cunningham gets hired.
There's no compensatory picks.
Everybody moves on.
