'Wetzel: NFL should look into Giants co-owner Steve Tisch'

(ESPN) "Law enforcement first investigated Jeffrey Epstein in 2005, after he was accused of paying a 14-year-old girl for a massage. By 2006, as the accusations widened, the FBI got involved."

"In 2010, Epstein was sentenced to 18 months in prison for 'solicitation of prostitution with a minor.' Over the next few years, he settled lawsuits with numerous victims alleging similar behavior. These received extensive media coverage."

"None of this stopped New York Giants co-owner and Hollywood film producer Steve Tisch, in 2013, from regularly exchanging emails with Epstein in which the sex offender appears to serve as Tisch's skin-crawling personal 'dating' service."

"Epstein, according to documents that became public Friday in a Department of Justice evidence dump, continually offered up women -- Russians, Ukrainians, Tahitians -- whom Tisch would refer to as 'my present' or 'my surprise.' Other times he inquired if they were 'pro or civilian.' "

"Tisch isn't accused of violating any law in his conduct, but that doesn't mean NFL commissioner Roger Goodell shouldn't ask lots of questions about all this, if not launch an investigation. He should treat a long-standing owner -- Tisch's father originally bought half the Giants in 1991 -- the way he would a random player."

How about "must?"

Goodell can't let this guy walk like so many others in the NFL.
