Think again--BREAKING NEWS:  Brady's suspension that was annulled last year, have been reinstated this year.   Just saw it on ESPN.   Apparently it was overturned in the NFL's favor.

Long story short--Brady is gonna have to serve it anyway...

EDIT:   Dammit Jason,  I wanted to be the one that broke the news...oh well.   I just need to learn to type faster. :6:

NEW YORK -- A federal appeals court has rejected Tom Brady's attempt to get a new hearing on his Deflategate suspension.

Brady was asking for the full 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to hear the case. In April, a three-judge panel of the court said that NFL commissioner Roger Goodell was within his powers when he suspended the star quarterback four games for his role in a scheme to doctor the footballs used in a Jan. 18, 2015, playoff game.

The decision Wednesday affirms the wide-ranging powers given to the commissioner by the NFL's collective bargaining agreement and is a setback for organized labor groups arguing for due process in employee discipline.

Brady's remaining hope is to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
