I don’t care if he did or didn’t...none of my business . N or is it the governments in my opinion but that’s another conversation . Only here because I’m curious to see what the NFL does and what you guys think they should do . We know what happens if this is a player, he’s cut...period. W e have somewhat of a similar situation with Jim Ir say a few years ago and his briefcase full of pills or whatever it was. But this is a very prominent NFL figure in the midst of a dynasty, seems to me there will be more curiosity and light on the case...especially from those that hate the Patriots. I’m already sick of hearing their shit and I haven’t heard it yet. I’m not a Patriots fan.
Anyway, this could open a can of worms for the NFL. What can they do to him other than a fine? Suspension? They have to take some meaningful action right? A player would lose a great deal, especially if he was an average player. What say you oppo?

Not that it should matter, a crimes a crime, but if you are a multi-billionaire , why are you going to a dinky massage parlor in a strip mall for $80 happy endings?
It’s like Bill Gates drinking a bud light because he loves it

Well, based on past history, they will do one thing (probably not a damn thing actually), then there will be an outcry from the public, then Goodell will do something different (while claiming it’s due to new information, not public outcry), then there will be another outcry that it’s too much, at which point Goodell will re-bury his head in sand.
But LOL if anyone thinks he’ll get the same punishment that a player would. He’s one of Goodell’s bosses, not the other way ‘round.

Remember Hugh Grant getting caught with a hooker while he was dating Elizabeth Hurley? People are strange - and the rich and famous all the more so.

He’ll get special treatment. I’ve seen things about the NFL waiting until he is found guilty before deciding but even that is a double standard. T he NFL has punished players without a guilty verdict.
He’ll get a slap on the wrist.

The critical thing here to me is not that Kraft hired a prostitute, but that human trafficking was suspected to be involved. I have no problem with someone hiring a prostitute on a moral basis; as long as everyone is a consenting adult, everything is cool. However, in many cases the people involved are not able to give consent. Go after the guys running these things, not the guys like Kraft using them.

As Albert Burneko pointed out on Deadspin, the NFL has set themselves up for failure by setting up as a quasi-legal shadow justice system for the players (and, to a much lesser extent, coaches and owners). But now that they’ve made their bed, they have to sleep in it and do something . W hen and if they give Kraft a slap on the wrist, it undermines their whole idiotic system of kangaroo courts and reveals that system—overseen, as it is, on behalf of the owners—to be hypocritical if not also racist.
If the other owners gently pressure Kraft to sell, the moaning and rending of garments from Patriots fans is going to be even more insufferable than when they win (although funnier)...of course, there are already fans on Twitter arguing that somehow the NFL is behind a random police operation busting a human-trafficking ring just to railroad Bob Kraft, because these people have brain worms.

I would think not judging even if those prostitutes were not victims of human trafficking they are going to say they are, otherwise they looking at jail time for prostitution. Plus if you claim that its a easy path to become a legal citizen of the US; assuming their ilegals.

I'll tell you what will happen. Next to nothing. That shithead Goodell is in bed with the owners, especially Kraft. Such is life in the no fun league.

last owner with serious lack of common sense or judgement was the Colts owner a few years back. DUI, narcotics in the car and in his blood. i think his punishment was minimal from the league.
