Brandon Marshall: “I think that there are three different types of players viewing this thing. Number one is the fighter. ... It’s not about what he did if he’s right or wrong, it’s more about the process. Is it fair?
“The second is the coward. I call them cowards. That’s the guys who are afraid to face Tom Brady. They want him suspended. I don’t believe in that.
“And the last is the race card. There are a lot of players out there that believe that white players, specifically at the quarterback position, are treated differently.”
Marshall left out the fourth type. I call them “smart.” They're the ones who understand the fact that there's no evidence that Brady did anything wrong, or that the NFL violated court precedent and the CBA, and the suspension was unjustified, illegal, or both.
Granted, some “fighters” are also “smart.” But you don't have to be a fighter to be smart.

"It is the common fate of the indolent to see their rights become a prey to the active. The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the punishment of his guilt."
