Jets' Sheldon Richardson suspended for the season opener for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy, per NFL

1 game is fine, glad it's not multiple.

[Warfish 28,564]

Got off very easy.  Good for him, good for the Jets.

[prime21 5,495]

Finally a decision. 1 game is a relief.

[Bruce Harper 3,761]

This is very good news.  Could have been much worse.

[Rangers9 1,921]

Of course he could always take this to the Supreme Court if he wants to like that other dufus.

Is this for the reckless driving incident from last offseason?

Can't complain I suppose.  Still sucks, he'd come in handy vs Cincinnati.

Just hope he's done with the dumb $hit now.

light sentence. I guess Godell is tired o getting hammered for handing out harsh sentences.  I'm glad he has taken a beating over his high-handedness.

very light sentence.  He/we got lucky.  NFL makes no sense with all of its inconsistencies.

[JiF 149,023]

That's lucky.  Do we get to chose what game?  haha

Wait, now there's an idea.  Take this to court until the brutal 7 week opening stretch of games is over.  Then accept the punishment.

[BroadwayJets 743]

He plead guilty in February in hopes to get a lighter punishment from the NFL. I guess that worked. Hopefully he keeps his nose clean from here on out.

Awesome, now we can finally get to the walk of atonement:

[Augustiniak 7,517]

means more lbs blitzing vs cincy.

Given Goodell's history now, we can pretty much conclude that he think marijuana is the bridge too far in American jurisprudence. Did Willie Nelson murder his father or something? 

[BurnleyJet 8,797]

I'm a little surprised thought I'd be getting at least 4. So it's good news. 

[Sarge4Tide 8,159]

That's about the best we could have possibly hoped for

[jetscrazey 3,075]

sucks that they won't have him for the Bengals game, but all in all that's not a bad outcome

[The Crusher 218,327]

He should have just handed his phone in and this would have all gone away.

[faba 118,231]

Ok one game is easier to take then what i expected

Is it in the NFL conduct policy handbook that if you speed, flee the cops and have a car that smells like weed with a minor it that you will get suspended for a game?

If not, SUPREME COURT HERE WE COME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Bleedin Green 79,747]

I think this sounds about right for both sides.  Can't blame the NFL for doing something here, but in the end it had nothing to do with the league and was simply some of the "personal conduct" crap.  And in that category, Richardson's was actually pretty mild compared to some of the other craziness the league has dealt with lately.  To go along with past punishments, if anything was done at all, it would have been tough to justify more than one or two games.

Is that a factory option when purchasing a Bentley or is an aftermarket thing?

[faba 118,231]

It is called small town justice- whatever the commish feels like doing

Have you ever rode in a car that was owned by a cigarette smoker?? The smell doesn't go away easy the same with hotels rooms that book smoking or not smoking rooms for a reason.. If Sheldon didn't have the resisting arrest part I doubt it he would have even got a game suspension. BTW he wasn't charged with anything about the minor being in the car so that shouldn't even be a issue.. Having no common sense I agree but that's it..

Good thing the cops didnt check the air pressure in his tires. Goodell would have gone crazy..

I have, its gross.  Weed doesnt permeate the way tobacco does.  The smell goes away very quickly.

I disagree my Niece's son has a friend whose car smells like weed just walking by it..

[no psls 876]

He's still a JACKASS !! Sign Wilkerson and let Sheldon blow in the wind .

Then she probably keeps her weed in the car.  Trust me, you can get rid of weed smell very quickly.  Not the same as tobacco.

Savage and I have had same Bio avatars for some 15 years or so now. I know Jeff Bridges looks older. I wonder what that ass in Savages avatars looks like now
