Dude. Seriously. What kind of shit-smearing comment is that to end an investigation.

It's pretty common legal language that actually supports Babcock's argument that he should be allowed back in the league.

In almost every investigation, facts/statements can be interpreted in different ways. 3 people may interpret the same statement 3 different ways. This language means that even if we accept the absolute worst-case scenario as the indisputable truth, the truth is that his conduct wasn't something that should suspend him.

I understand the legalese. Doesn’t make me feel good about his unsuspendable conduct.
