Look at pacman jones. He's at a place and his entourage gets people shot and paralyzed, but hey he'll be back in a year. Hey its okay if you beat your wife or girlfriend, just serve your time and hey your back in the NFL. I love dogs as much as the next person, but I don't believe the NFL should be banning him for it. Let the NFL teams all pass on him and let him get a real job some where.
the lifetime ban would come from the illegal gambling. nfl wants NO PART of a scandal such as the one the NBA is facing. it is in their code of conduct that such a ban would result from gambling. the only betting allowed is on horse racing.
