November 20, 2019 Updates

At least as of the early afternoon:

• Jim Cornette was fired today by the NWA.  They gave him the decency to resign, but the fact is he was fired.
• Myles Garrett's hearing was apparently today, and his appeal is based on a 2013 precedent regarding a league suspension of Antonio Smith for a similar incident with Richie Incognito.

That might be a bit better argument, except for one major problem you've already seen in the incident:

The NFL is The League of the Quarterback.  All else is expendable.

Else, why is Mason Rudolph not banned at least two games himself?

• And something I have neglected, in the chaos that has been the last week or so, to report on...

Colin Kaepernick DID, in fact, hold a workout for some NFL organizations last weekend.

It was NOT the NFL-set up event that was scheduled, and the reasons appear to vary, depending on your take on the affair.

One report has that the NFL wanted Kaepernick to sign away his rights to sue a second time for collusion, should this fail.

Kaepernick did the right thing and not only did not fall for the trap, but held his own workout anyway for some teams who could find their way to the event.

And reports indicate that the Kaepernick defenders are right:  He can play, the arm is ready, and the collusion is real.  Stay tuned.
