Patriots fans file lawsuit against NFL

[Alex.]

"The suit was filed in Boston federal court on Tuesday, according to Reuters. Patriots fans allege that NFL commissioner Roger Goodell "acted unlawfully" when he handed down New England's punishment for Deflategate.

That punishment included two lost draft picks, a Tom Brady suspension and a $1 million fine. This group of fans is hoping to see both picks -- a first-rounder in 2016 and a fourth-rounder in 2017 -- returned to the Patriots.

Seth Carey, an attorney in Maine who's one of seven people involved in the lawsuit, explained why he felt it was necessary to file it.

"This case is brought by New England Patriots fans on behalf of all Patriots fans who believe the New England Patriots professional football team were harmed by the defendants' arbitrary and capricious decision to revoke the Patriots' first-round draft choice in the April 28, 2016 NFL Draft," the suit states, via the Boston Herald."

what a bunch of crybabies. They do not mind when their teams cheats but sob bitter tears when it comes time to pay the price.

The fans have no standing: dead law suit.

The fans have no standing: dead law suit.

I agree except to get their real genuine fake Patriot teething ring and sanctions for bringing a frivolous suit.
