integrity of the game, which at times seems more important than say punishing domestic abuse, get this, greg hardy now with cowboys had his 10 game suspension cut to 4 for assaulting his ex-girlfriend, that decision made by an independent arbitrator not goodell. they predict that breadthy's suspension will be cut to 2 games from 4, we know, if this suspension is not reduced to zero, there are reports that brady and players union will file a federal lawsuit against the league. when in out the, file a lawsuit. charles: thank you. >> you're welcome. charles: can he smooth over tensions, saudi arabia's foreign minister arrives at white house to meet with president obama, talking about this iranian nuke deal, our next guest said that tensions are just going to continue to rise.

necessarily going to like this but the reality is imagine, think about what happened with richie rice, greg hardy. i am not equating those with tom brady but you have to look at it and say you know the nfl did not have a policy in place for any of these so did tom brady most likely do something wrong? yes. the punishment, the nfl didn't have a policy for it so on that end i have to defend tom brady but at the same time it is not about right or wrong, it is about whether the nfl should have been allowed to suspend him for this long being that this policy had not been applied to players in the past. neil: here is the thing that takeaway i had from this. i didn't know individuals to control their own footballs they had. i always thought in baseball and basketball, that is done by a third party, the nfl, maybe that will change. individual teams were in control of this stuff. maybe that is a bad idea. >> sort of. is a good idea because the quarterbacks each one like the ball away they like it. some like it with more air, some like it with less air, some like it with other things. there's a film on it.

greg hardy, if those of us who are familiar with it read the transcript of what went on in his situation. ray rice has basically been banished from the nfl, whether it's because of what roger goodell demanded or the reality of the pr associated with signing someone like ray rice. but he deflated footballs and he is now not going to play. the fact that it's in the same conversation is somewhat inherently hypocritical and i think that's a problem for the nfl. >> thanks to both of you. i appreciate it. >>> in just about 30 minutes the secretary of state john kerry and other top obama administration officials will be on capitol hill addressing the senate armed services committee as they try to convince law makers to back a nuclear agreement with iran. yesterday secretary kerry warned that not passing the bill will accelerate iran's path to a nuclear weapon. bringing in peter binarn. good morning, peter. >> good morning. >> the big thing in the hearing yesterday was the supposed side deal between weapons inspectors the iaea and iran. secretary kerry said he hasn't even read the side deal. am

think tom brady and whatever tom -- whatever is going on with roger goodell in the past, ray rice, greg hardylist goes on and on, he's the commissioner, not an elected official. his boss the 32 owners who handed him $44 million for one year in 2012. the commissioner roger goodell will be just fine no matter what. it's tom brady who is the four-time super bowl champion who has players present and former literally saying as great as he is and no doubt a hall of famer we believe he tried to get an unfair advantage and in their eyes that is cheating and the fact you have your contemporaries past and present feeling that way, that is the ultimate indictment for a player, a professional athlete. >> can this keep him out of the hall of fame. >> i don't think so. it could potentially keep him as a first ballot hall-of-famer. i don't think that's going to happen. he's too phenomenal, too great, too accomplished but still when you have your colleague, contemporaries that look at you as if you've been stained and think it is legitimate that's the ultimate indictment against you. >> stephen a. smith, tha

. >> what doesn't goodell you reduce the suspension, look at greg hardy, suspension reduced from 10 games domestic violence. how do you give tom brady. >> i don't think it is apples and oranges. hardy is domestic violence this integg guest of the game. i understand. how can you see it equates. >> you say it's a chick thing? i'm just kidding. >> goodell dig his heels this is the biggest story on nfl off-season. he doesn't want to say, well, i screwed it up again. he needs to get something right. this one they want to get right. it might be four, might be zero. compromise is two. brady's camp wouldn't be happy. maria: what about that? weigh in here, john tatum? >> i agree, you look at different suspensions whether performance-enhancing or obviously domestic violence but the integrity of the game is third rail. that is the one that roger takes probably the most seriously. not that the others are aren't but he certainly has to protect "the shield." and i think the other thing too is, how forthright the, you know, folks are. so if in that 10-hour period, you know, tom, had done something wrong

. >> ray rice, adrian peterson, greg hardy.e in the league is tom brady. he's white. >> if deflating footballs is the standard, a lot of people that you named who have been in domestic violence issues, child abuse issues. one man there was accused of rape. >> he was. >> it's not much of a comparison. and it's not anectdo krchlanecd. the overwhelming majority of these players, unfortunately, will be the young, black players. there was a time -- i remember with the cowboys, they had a house that they set up so that they could have affairs and all kinds of crazy things. look, charles haley is highlighting a problem that's pervasive, unfortunately, among young, black football players who, the sad part is, don't have a good familial unit that helps them to understand that when you get to that level your character will really come into play because you're going to have a lot more money and you're going to be in the spotlight. you know, i'm happy that he has done this. as he said, he did it for shock value. the sad part is, the shock

. >> four-game suspension, a lot of people are arguing and comparing that to greg hardy of the dallas cowboys involved in a heinous episode of domestic violence. he got four games. are they comparable? >> not remotely but the league can say he sat out all but one game of last year. arbitrator reduced it to four, that's not our judgment. this goes to the integrity of the game. they say it's consistent with four-game penalties for using performance enhanceing drugs on the first offense. >> stay in new york because we'll need ut over the next couple of months. >> i'll go to the cot in the back room. >> starts at 7:00 unfortunately. >> unfortunate. >> turning to natalie for the other top headlines. >> a florida man is in custody this morning charged with plotting to set off a back pack bomb at a beach. nbc's justice correspondent pete williams has the very latest. good morning. >> good morning to you. the fbi says he was inspired by isis and came to the attention of authorities in april after advocating violence on facebook, he was arrested after he received what he thought was a bomb tha

worked on corporate governance and i worked with dick shelby on consumer bureau and jack read and greg hardy worked on the regulation. everyone liked the idea and went off in pairs with staff. this is too big of a project to take on with the chairman's job. they made worthwhile contributions to the product you can see. they contributed a lot in some cases. in the case of jack reed but they could not reach cloche closure on the derivative side. corker and warner had tremendous contributions. senator kennedy was a master at this on major complex pieces of legislation asked democrats and republicans to work together to put something together we can all support. so it was saddening in a way, and i did -- we took provisions of the bill. the provisions the in -- in the deal deal deal -- in the bill dwiingealing with the congo. texas provisions incorporated. i am looking at amy. amy friend was general counsel during the consideration bill. we made the effort to bring people in as you normally do if you take major provisions and they end up being supported and may not like other parts of the bill. n
