The Second Circuit Court of Appeals decided Sam Bradford did not deserve more than 20 minutes in the limelight. Shortly after Adam Schefter reported Bradford wanted a trade, the 2nd Circuit published their decision in the Tom Brady suspension case. The Court reversed the district court's ruling and reinstated Brady's 4-game suspension for the DeflateGate controversy.
The ruling was based entirely on the CBA, and had little to do with the details of DeflateGate. A federal court provides great deference to labor arbitration awards. It needs to be wildly beyond the pale for a court to reverse an arbitration ruling.
