Nothing is going to be announced today based on past history.
That will suck. I would hope we would know after the meeting if any punishment happens.

Just take him out in the hallway so everyone can see and give him the paddle.

If he does catch a time out and you were a teammate, and not one getting an opportunity, how would you feel about this?

How do you feel if you're his HC, OC and position coach?

I am pissed this time. But I see it different as a fan. The players don’t even care as much when they lose a game as I do. Lol

With this being the Cowboys and the knowledge that the meeting is taking place, this could be a little more timely than usual.

But the real question is what's the purpose of the meeting? Is this to hear Elliott's side of this event or have they already heard that and this is to hand down a decision?

May be without more than Elliott to start the season, I am thinking Crawford gets 4-6 and we don't know about Gregory's situation. All they need is two more DL and the Cowboys can have the first Suspended Front Four, be the Missing Foursome.

Imagine it’s to hear Zekes side of the story and gauge his remorse about the incident and his future . Then they’ll internally mull it over and reach a decision sometime before training camp.

That's what I was thinking but I think many are expecting this to get handed down right after the meeting. The timing of this process is really slow.

I don’t think Gregory plays again. JJ was optimistic but that’s only if goodell has a change of heart. He missed a drug test. Same as failing. He was suspended indefinately. I thought the next step was banishment but apparently not.

i don't think they really care about "his side" of the story anymore. you get that benefit of doubt first few times. After that the problem is just you.

don't care at this point. if his motivation is weed first, NFL career second, that's all i need to know.

With you there.

Nobody forced Zeke to get drunk, to go to bars, etc. He has to learn some control, realize that at some point the league/commish will lay it on him big time, and that he's still under his rookie contract. Another incident or two and even Jerry would be loathe to give him a big deal...

What's funny is Zeke hasn't done half the stuff that some of the players from our SB teams did. The only difference is it's a different time. He has to be smarter. He knows he's on Goodell's radar. That's what I'm most mad at him for.

like gregory - the "star" life seems to be more attractive than an NFL career.

tired of those players on this team.

Indefinite suspension amounts to banishment, they don't have to go that extra step. The player has to petition for re-instatement and the league doesn't have to comply even with a hearing.

I can name one big one. Michael Irvin. Loved him but some of the stuff he did off the field was ridiculous. I still blame him for derailing our 1996 season. What did Zeke do? He pulled a woman's top down that she didn't mind and love tapped a security guard. Give me a break. That crap with that woman was bogus. Even the NFL's investigator said their was no proof. What Zeke has done is a bunch of childish things...nothing more.
