07:46 AM ET 06.18 | The commissioner knows Plaxico Burress is playing the delay game, which forces him to act before a conviction. From my perspective, the commissioner has no problem being proactive, is not afraid of conflict and is not afraid to make tough choices. However, he knows that whatever ruling he makes, a challenge in court by Burress' defense team will soon follow. Therefore, his decision must be three-dimensional. The first dimension handles the ruling, the second has precedent to back up the ruling and the third can hold up within the boundaries of the NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement.
