Goodell has an amazing ability to make the wrong decision 100% of the time. I’m flummoxed that he can breathe successfully.

He may be smarter than he looks. According to this:

> **[Suh wins appeal, will play against Cowboys](https://www.espn.com/nfl/playoffs/2014/story/_/id/12099681/ndamukong-suh-detroit-lions-wins-appeal-play-playoff-game-vs-dallas-cowboys)**
>
> Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh has won his appeal of his one-game suspension, sources told ESPN.com.

this was the first week he could stomp on somebody without falling under the “repeat offender” policy.

I’ve got no rooting interests in the Cowboys vs Lions. But the Suh, suspension and subsequent repeal is a joke. I was hoping for more than one game for Suh. But it’s all about money.
