The NFL’s annual league meeting, the owners’ meeting, is underway this week in Scottsdale, Arizona. One thing we know already is that if you want to know anything about Patriot’s owner Robert Kraft, please refer to Rob Gronkowski’s retirement. We also know that the New Orleans Saints delegation is not ready to forgive and forget.
They’re all there: Sean Payton, Gayle Benson, GM Mickey Loomis and president Dennis Lauscha. So far, they’re not getting the results they’ve been hoping for and they aren’t going quietly away. The rules changes that have been brought up for a vote so far in front of the competition committee have addressed some possibilities for expanding replay to cover certain penalties.
