    Thank Christ. No one needs or wants to see that

    But what a letdown.

    That said, all this states is the video.

    Video has audio, and the audio from the video could still be released.

    Or maybe they have other audio (bugs).

    Video is one thing, but for conviction, any audio revealing any transactional negotiations by Kraft would be more important than the view of functional services rendered.

    I think the judge is clubhouse leader for Sportsman of the Year.

    Odds it's even mentioned in an NFL broadcast next season 10-1? I don't know what the PR for this is. Sit-down for one interview with King or Nance? Allow one question on it - "It was an unfortunate situation, but I've put it behind me and am looking forward to the season and that's all I should really say about it."

    For the lay person in the court of public opinion, guilty people don’t need to suppress evidence.
    just a handy.

    Robert Kraft is close to victory in prostitution case, and the NFL faces hard choices

    Here is the real question. It looks like the legal case against Kraft is going to fail. Will the league do nothing? One thing Kraft has done is admit that he did something wrong. He said, “I know I have hurt and disappointed my family, my close friends, my co-workers, our fans and many others who rightfully hold me to a higher standard." That sure sounds like there was a violation of the league's personal conduct policy, but Goodell is far more willing to punish players than he is to go after owners.

    Does it come down to whether the video leaks or not?

    Spygate, Deflategate, Full Releasegate...

    Kraft has a habit of apologizing for things that never happened
