Munson: How Tom Brady is gearing up for the Supreme Court

Tom Brady's case is no longer about deflated footballs or a four-game suspension -- it's about the fundamental rights of American workers and a dangerous threat to industrial peace in America. At least that's the case Brady and his new lawyer, Ted Olson, are not only trying to make but sell to the U.S. Supreme Court. To do so, they've assembled an all-star team of labor leaders, scholars and experts.

According to Olson and his impressive supporting cast, the court decision in April that reinstated Brady's suspension threatens the "rule of law" in the U.S. and is an "egregious misstatement" of American employment law.
