    Isn't the behind the doors "arbitrator" on this the Commish.

    • The Conflict of Interest: The NFL Constitution grants the Commissioner "full, complete, and final jurisdiction" to arbitrate disputes.

    Report cards are usually overly generous in their grades. I see players and coaches get higher grades than they deserve all the damn time.

    At my grandkids school there are no letter grades. They are given a 1, 2 or 3 on the report card. 3 is good, 2 is average and 1 is below average. If you get nothing but 1's you still get a diploma when you finish 12th grade.

    We got E's instead of F's for failing grades back in the 80's when I was in school. I had a good friend who got a D-E-A-D.... on his report card. D for the 2nd Six weeks, E for the 3rd Six Weeks, A for the Exam and D for the Semester Average. :applaud:

    I did feel the report cards did prove the Rooneys were as cheap as blamed to be. And the team and fans suffered.

    As much as I'd love to blame Tomlin for hiring below average assistant coaches, I think the report cards show it wasn't all his fault. The Steelers just plain paid less for assistant coaches, had fewer of them and worked them harder. Tougher to hire good help.

    The Steeler medical doctors were probably underpaid too which explains the Bettis, Lloyd and Watt medical issues.

    I'll bet we don't know the half of it.

    I can say from first hand knowledge this is a blatant lie

    And you should be treated with the total indignation liars deserve

    You no longer have any credibility on this board

    Rhetorical question but why is it so hard for some people to be honest and honorable
