News: Motion Denied - Zeke suspended

[links18]

no, he wasn't

2nd circuit overturned Fallia? When did that happen?

 

[revospeed]

Who do we call up while he is suspended? Brian Brown? The WR corps is banged up.

 

[mardwin]

It is what it is. I expected this outcome, but I'm still mad about it. It's a shame that the CBA dictates some much power to the NFL. The next time the CBA comes up, I expect this to be a major topic.

It shouldn't even be part of the discussion. The commissioner should be fully excluded from any disciplinary action and it would be up to a committee comprised of NFL executives and NFLPA members.

Not only is zeke getting railroaded.....but the cowboys organization is getting railroaded, the cowboys fan base is getting railroaded.......f*** Goddell and the NFL!!!

 

[superonyx]

makes you wonder about his legal team.

Also makes me see the NFL front office in an even uglier light.
Seeing how they have a goal of rushing to court as soon as they release their results so they can make a player serve a suspension before getting a trail is beyond ugly and reeks of corporate corruption at its worst.

This entire case just does way more harm to the league than any good PR that they believe comes from it.
I wouldnt like this type of behavior if it was happening to any player.

The sad thing is he's serving a suspension for Domestic Violence. That's what's attached to it and he wasn't even convicted of the crime. Zeke's name gets attached to woman beater and Goodell is furious about making $40 Million a year.

 

[Fontaine]

Well at least zeke will be fresh for playoffs. Let's hope he stays in football shape over the next 6 weeks.

 

[Thomas82]

Sums it up perfectly:

Yep that's it in a nutshell.

 

[Broges74]

Well at least zeke will be fresh for playoffs. Let's hope he stays in football shape over the next 6 weeks.

He should be nice an hungry by then too.

 

[Vero_F250]

Falcons
Eagles
Chargers
Commanders
Giants
Raiders

That’s not that bad

4-2 at the worst easy.

Somebody seriously needs to throw a tomato or a battery or even better a brick at Roger Goodell when he walks across the stage on draft night.

 

[HungryLion]

The team has to make the playoffs first.

 

[Cowboy4ever]

To give Zeke's team an opportunity to present contradicting facts and/or case law that supports their case.

They didn't listen or care about any facts, other than the NFL has them in their pockets. There is absolutely no reason not to grant the injunction. They were not ruling on the case itself.

 

[Direwolf63]

I appreciate the attempt to sugar coat. But missing Zeke for the next 6 games sucks no matter how you slice it.

The team still needs to go 5-3 the last 8 games to have a realistic shot at the playoffs.

I think they can go 4-2 without him.

None of that would be possible, if the law didn't allow--no, encourage--it.

 

[StarBoyz83]

So will it be the normal hes good to play tomorrow or is this different? Lol

 

[Grevus]

It shouldn't even be part of the discussion. The commissioner should be fully excluded from any disciplinary action and it would be up to a committee comprised of NFL executives and NFLPA members.

I agree, but it's not going to happen until the next CBA is negotiated.

 

[VACowboy]

If this team can’t win games without Zeke it’s not a contender anyway.

 

[Wayne02]

I hope Jerry makes Roger Goon-ell pay for this injustice. B'bye, Comish. Go flip burgers somewhere.

He's set for life 2 times over if he stepped down today, he won't be burger flipping anywhere.

It is what it is....Let’s just go beat those dirty birds!
