Is it Christmas? Because this feels like a gift.

"In light of today's news about Patriots owner Robert Kraft, it's important to remember that owners are subject to the NFL's personal conduct policy. In fact, the policy states that "ownership and club or league management have traditionally been held to a higher standard and will be subject to more significant discipline when violations of the Personal Conduct Policy occur." In 2014, for instance, Colts owner Jim Irsay was suspended six games and fined $500,000 after being arrested on drug charges."

This is a stupid question, or what does it mean for an owner to be suspended six games? he cannot attend games, or something?

A spokesperson for Robert Kraft released this statement shortly after the news broke about the charges:

“We categorically deny that Mr. Kraft engaged in any illegal activity. Because it is a judicial matter, we will not be commenting further.”
Also...
Video evidence exists in prostitution sting involving Robert Kraft
The Jupiter Police Department confirmed that there is video evidence of the alleged act, “for all the individuals being charged.”

Chief Daniel Kerr said says 25 additional individuals will be charged, and the case has been sent to the State Attorney's Office.

Police will not be releasing video or documentation at this time.

Interesting trade ideas.

Brown to the Cardinals for Peterson? Yes.

Authorities say New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft visited a Florida massage parlor for sex acts on the morning of the AFC Championship Game, which he attended in Kansas City later that day.

According to documents released by the Palm Beach State Attorney's Office on Monday, it was the second visit by Kraft to the parlor in less than 24 hours.

The documents say Kraft arrived at the Orchids of Asia Day Spa in a chauffeured 2015 blue Bentley at 11 a.m. on Jan. 20. He was videotaped receiving oral and manual sex from a woman at the spa in Jupiter. Officials say he gave her a $100 bill and another bill before leaving at 11:15 a.m.

The AFC Championship Game against the host Chiefs kicked off at 6:40 p.m. ET. Kraft, who is also the owner of the New England Revolution of MLS, was in attendance.

The 77-year-old Kraft, who was also seen soliciting prostitution on video surveillance Jan. 19, was officially charged with two misdemeanor counts of first-degree solicitation, Palm Beach State Attorney Dave Aronberg announced Monday.

I've heard he wasn't the only billionaire caught, and not the biggest name either.

But is he the most sanctimonious?

Redskins have no cap money, as I understand it.

Oh, and no one who can throw the ball.

Would not be a fan of the panthers doing that. DE has to be priority if we are spending AB money. We have young playmakers.

I'm really rooting for the Bucs or Raiders to get him.

The Jets would be pretty ironic and fitting. They have taken other Steelers WRs in the past.

Manziel released by Montreal with extreme prejudice.

Sounds like Johnny might have failed a drug test or something.

That will have an interesting domino effect on the draft.

"Redskins interested"

What? Foles going to DC for $5 and a broken down Civic?
