Nelson Peterson is concerned about one thing -- how much scratch will be available to leach off AP in 2015. His credibility ... ABSOLUTE ZERO.

NFL statement on Adrian Peterson: "Judge Doty’s order did not contain any determinations concerning the fairness of the appeals process under the CBA, including the commissioner’s longstanding authority to appoint a designee to act as hearing officer. Even so, we believe strongly that Judge Doty’s order is incorrect and fundamentally at odds with well-established legal precedent governing the district court’s role in reviewing arbitration decisions. As a result, we have filed a notice of appeal to have the ruling reviewed by the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals. In the interim, Adrian Peterson will be returned to the Commissioner Exempt List pending further proceedings by appeals officer Harold Henderson or a determination by the Eighth Circuit Court."

@NFLprguy: "The commissioner's exempt list permits a player and team to communicate."

‏@TomPelissero The 8th Circuit only has court one week a month. The March slate is scheduled. Next session April 13-17. So that part's not moving quickly.

Then there's this curious nugget.
They've been able to communicate this whole time?

@GoesslingESPN: NFL says Adrian Peterson can be traded, released or have deal restructured after March 10.

@GoesslingESPN: So essentially, the Vikings can do everything they'd need to do with Peterson, from a roster standpoint.
