Lynch will not be punished by NFL

[Fire Wade]

PITTSFORD, N.Y. -- NFL commissioner Roger Goodell personally informed Buffalo Bills running back Marshawn Lynch on Monday that he won't be disciplined by the league for a hit-and-run accident that left a woman injured.

"I think the facts are clear on the case at this point in time, and I don't plan any discipline," Goodell said Monday, during a visit to Bills training camp in suburban Rochester.

Goodell based his decision on the fact that Lynch eventually agreed to plead guilty to a traffic violation, which is not a violation of the NFL's personal conduct policy. Lynch initially faced more serious charges.

it was an accident, the woman wasn't hurt, Lynch wasn't drinking... what the hell could they possibly have in favor of a suspension?

I thought you had more logic than this...

I don't think he was saying there had to be a suspension....and it isn't about what the NFL does for minor traffic offenses. It seems kind of fishy with all of the stalling he was doing. Whether he was aware of hitting the woman or not has nothing to do with him owning up to driving the vehicle or saying, yeah, so and so was driving."

Maybe he had to wait until he was out of "Beast Mode"?

You can say what you want about Lynch, but he sure does make me laugh. Maybe this has already been posted here, but for those who don't know it yet, check out his blog.

What Marshawn Lynch was a Major Criminal act punnishable by a year in jail. but because of the Buffalo Police showing gross favrotism he only got his licence temporarly revoked.

But since the BPD didn't see any need to hold Marshawn accountable for his actions, it would have been against the NFL's Conduct policy to do so, they can only act on what he was charged with, not what he actually did, if Goodell had done what was right the NFLPA would have been all over him like stink on ****.
