...the ideal penalty would be (1) forfeiture of an entire year's draft,as others have suggested, plus (2) the suspension of Belichick for an entire year.
But those things will never happen.
What amazes me is that the other 31 owners have never banded together and demanded this kind of penalty from Goodell, who has now proven to be pretty good at knuckling-under, bowing down, and acceding to demands.
The other 31 owners could rightfully call-out Kraft to Goodell and say, "This guy's
cheating the rest of us," (a/k/a the other 31 teams) "and he's never been held accountable for this, not after SB36, not after Deflategate, not after on-and-on-and-on, and he's
still cheating the rest of us. We demand these multiple penalties for Kraft and his franchise, or you're fired as of this moment. After all, you're our employee, you answer to us."
But this imagined showdown will never happen. Makes me think that, in the minds of the other 31 owners, the Belicheat Legacy is just a media thing and No Big Deal.
