Vilma is suspended for a whole year, without pay.

i saw the punishments. Wow. the whole year shocked me.

Vilma should challenge it and if they don't have proof, he should be allowed to play. If they still don't want to reinstate him, sue the league for millions. But the NFL doesn't rule like this unless they have solid proof. It will be interesting in the next few months with bounty gate.

Btw I agree with John Harbaugh. All the patriots championships are tainted. So will be the saints if it's true that their GM tapped opposing teams communications.
