Attorney Robert Blecker (of New York)  filed an amicus with the court which slams the NFL and the whole idea of integrity..  

"Naturally, the NFL summarily characterizes its own investigation as full and
fair, emphasizing a Commissioner’s unfettered discretion to define and punish
conduct detrimental to the integrity of the sport. However from the start, the NFL’s
investigation, adjudication, and punishment of Tom Brady for actively
participating in a scheme to illegally tamper with ball pressure has been infected
with bias, unfairness, evident partiality and occasional fraud."
