Brian Flores, The Rooney Rule, And Competition Integrity In The NFL

Wednesday, 30 March 2022 Brian Flores, The Rooney Rule, And Competition Integrity In The NFL

The expert panel discusses the impact of tanking on competition integrity - including whether it could rise to the level of criminal conspiracy and/or civil lawsuits from bettors and sportsbooks - and the ability of the NFL and its member clubs to remove an owner who financially incentivizes its team personnel to lose games - including the potential avenues to do so through a 3/4 owner ratification or more directly through the NFL commissioner's authority.
