Summary
Chris and Rob discuss the controversial Deshaun Watson suspension ruling and tell us why Roger Goodell has no choice but to appeal the 6-game ban that was handed down by the independent arbiter, debate whether or not Watson should view this ruling – and this offseason as a whole – as a win for himself, and argue whether sports fans will eventually forgive and forget about Watson’s transgressions assuming he plays well on the field.

| 0:32.3 | I thought that the arbitrator swung and missed. |
| 0:37.0 | I thought the suspension was way too lenient, |

| 0:51.6 | You don't have to be, it's not like you have to be guilty of a crime |

| 0:59.7 | that once you sign up and you sign a contract to be a part of something, you have to live by |
