Am I missing something? I work for a very big company, if I had a problem at work, or the union I deal with had an issue, would we be in front of congress?...NO ARRINGTON APPEARS BEFORE CONGRESS In an effort to defend the man who admittedly failed to proofread a contract that allegedly omitted a $6.5 million payment, Giants linebacker LaVar Arrington appeared before Congress on Thursday and argued that the NFL Players Association's procedures for disciplining agent Carl Poston were unfair. "All I ask is to have a fair process. That's it," Arrington told a House Judiciary subcommittee, according to the Associated Press. "Nothing more and nothing less -- a fair process." On Wednesday, Arrington compared the NFLPA to "organized crime." One area in which change could come relates to the selection of the arbitrator who issues a final and binding decision as to the enforcement of any proposed discipline. "The core issue is: Is it fair that the agents have the same arbitrator every time? Or should there be some kind of panel? I think the NFLPA is likely to reconsider that issue," said subcommittee chairman Chris Cannon (R-Utah).
