emotional trauma, loss of enjoyment of life, and loss of faith in the nfl. goodell does have the power to have whole or part of a game replayed due to "extraordinary circumstances."which to me.. is an earthquake or maybe if the quarterback has heart attack.. i'm thinkin the saints will lose this pi lawsuit just like they lost the p-i call. bet steph curry would love a do-over to erase the video of that embarassing banana-peel slip he had when the warriors beat the lakers monday night.. but instead he's laughing about it on late night t-v.
