Bernie: Stadium project is a test of ethics for NFL

Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon and stadium task force leaders Dave Peacock and Bob Blitz gathered at the Four Seasons hotel Thursday for a meeting with NFL executive vice president Eric Grubman.

The discussion lasted four hours. I wasn’t able to place a secret listening device in the conference room to monitor the conversation, so there’s no way of knowing what was said.

Peacock was genuinely upbeat after the palaver with Grubman.

Well, of course he was, the cynics say.

What, did you expect Peacock to leave the meeting in a doom-and-gloom mood and declare his intentions to surrender?
