I can possibly understand the logic of letting him continue to work. It would be easy to convince yourself that the damage was already done and cooperating with the FBI would not make it worse. By why give him a second round playoff assignment? Why not find a reason to keep him out?

Get your dates straight.
He didn't continue to work. The league found out on June 20, 2007. That's more than a month after his last game.
Donaghy resigned circa two weeks ago. They would like to have fired him when they found out but did not.
