How can Suh logically appeal his suspension?

It has nothing to do with logic and everything to do with the Lions' next opponent...

If Suh does not appeal, then he will miss the New Orleans and Minnesota games. By appealing, he has a chance to play against the Saints (8-3), since his suspension does not go into effect until his appeals are heard. If he plays, he might drop his appeal next Monday and sit out Minnesota (2-9) and Oakland (7-4).

This happens many times in football where a player will file an appeal to play a key game and then drop the appeal to serve the suspension against teams that are not considered as good as the team he wants to play against.

Appeals are all part of the process. When a commissioner hands out a multi-game suspension in any sport, he knows the players union is going to appeal it. The commissioner will often make the suspension longer then what he feels is justified by the incident, so that when the appeal occurs he can reduce the penalty and still get the suspension he wanted. The NFL may have felt that what Suh did only merited a one game suspension. But they make it two games, the players union appeals, the NFL reduces it to one game and everybody goes home happy.

The NFL has introduced that if Suh ought to charm, they'd expedite the approach and pay attention the charm in the previous this weekend and announce the leads to the previous Sundays sport. So, even with what maximum of human beings seem to think of, him pleasing won't impression his status for this week's sport (except the unthinkable occurs and Goodell comes to a decision to take the suspension returned - rather no longer likely)

I was watching the game, so I got to see the repeat from many angles.

Suh is lucky he wasn't suspended for the year.

I used to kinda like him for his intensity and natural talent.

and yes, I know it's hard to dial it down a notch, in real time on the field.

But that was seriously one bad beatdown he handed out.

especially after he just had his sit down with Godell.

Suh is going to be playing through a microscope, the rest of his career.

a penalty like that, will cost him a whole season, or maybe permanent suspension, if it happens again.

Notice how was blaming the other team at first, and refused to accept any responsibility?

He's not sorry he did it,

he's just sorry he got caught.

After so many bad penalties, he has lost most of my respect.

Once again, it's the Detroit fans that lose.

They haven't had much to root for, for most of the last 40-50 years, and then he this shxt?

You just KNOW that the referees are going to watching him close.

That was the worst I have seen all season

Appeals are essentially ways of delaying a suspension. In cases as publicized as his, reductions are rare. Suh's goal is likely to play in the game against the Saints this weekend. I doubt that he actually believes that his punishment will be reduced.

He doesn't need to say a single word to EDS. D-S tried to end Suh's career by bending him over backwards after he was off-balance and disengaging after the whistle. Yes D-S bending him back happened after the play, too. Sorry Suh was too strong for D-S and quickly buried his helmet in the turf...then Suh was shoved by another cheesehead. And, damn right he stomped him...but watch the replay and watch the Packers linemen giving each other low fives in the background for baiting and getting Suh to react. Packer man...worry about your punk DB is taking swings at Lion special teamers and domestic abusing defenders that spend their Thanksgiving holiday behind bars. If anyone needs to be suspended and banned from team facilities it is the guy roughing up his girlfriend on his day off.

Why was Charles Woodson not suspended in the first place? He intended to hurt Jimmy Graham but nothing came of that.

Suh is appealing his suspension because Goddell recommended him to do it.

Best way to appeal his suspension is by stomping on Goodell

Hes not, and its frustrating... I really hope they keep the scope on him before he seriously injures someone!!

He's too good a talent for all this dirty player sh*t. I hope he matures and his explanation was complete bs.
