Ezekiel Elliott withdraws appeal

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Came here to post the same thing. The NFL is actively trying to push fans away.

It seems like that's what they're doing. There was no reason to post that except to gloat.

No problem, we have just the coach to see us through this time... Oh wait..

Done, move on. Problem is we don't have a plan B.

 

[Nightman]

Moving on won't do the team or his future any good...... fight the good fight until the end

This is very disappointing except to the fake fans here that get off on us losing

You were right and we lose......... again..... I hope it feels good

 

[ShortRound]

Only difference with this fiasco, was the exposure of information. I am sure there are other skeletons in the closet of the NFL we have no idea of.

All those years of Al Davis, Tagliabue, I don't believe for a second this league is full of angels and honest men.

Someone who needed to be, wasn't paid off, is all that happened here.

Maybe this was already posted, but it's worth a repost. The NFL is rubbing it in. What a douchebag spokesman.

Being a d-bag seems to be a requirement for getting a job in the NFL front office.

Nothing but bullies picking on the kids in Special Ed....... it is disgusting and not a fair fight

 

[DEMFAN]

Best thing he can do.

We’re going no where without Tyron and Lee. We will be 5-6 after thanksgiving ... no need to push it into next season

He misses/missed

Falcons - Loss
Eagles - Loss
Chargers - Loss
Commanders - Loss
Giants - Win
Raiders - Loss

Sounds right?

We will win 4 of those in my opinion. Chargers,Skins, Giants, Raiders

freakin idiots. they know they’ll never lose in NY. look how things went in texas and louisiana. judges did not budge to their nonsense. move on zeke. cowboys need to get better and raise that lombardi in goodells face

 

[Floatyworm]

Quitter...

Just goes to show when the going gets tough..He quits. I wouldn't want this guy on my team.

To accept the the lable "wifebeater"....Jesus ..never in a million years would you ever pin that on me. I'd fight that to the bitter end.

If...I was innocent.

Now...makes me wonder if they guy did it to begin with.

 

[dogberry]

Is Zeke's counseling requirement a standard practice for this charge or is it brand new for him?

How does Elliott sue a person who doesn't have funds to pay a lawyer?

Couldn't she bankrupt out of any judgement?

Or Mara could pay for her defense.

On a civil case against the NFL, he can go to Sherman?

The arrogance of the NFL front office knows no bounds.

 

[Everson24]

people do not understand that simple fact

now Goodie Goodell has him tied up under the guillotine with his hand on the switch

Hell Goodie said that any other police involvement could be a ban, any woman has him by the nuts now, if he doesn't call her, she calls police and Goodie bans him for life

Zeke is not long for this league and the Dallas Cowboys better not be making any long-term plans with him either. We need to draft another one fairly high next year or get a proven running back in free agency.

Goodell and the league will be looking at Zeke under a microscope these next few years if for no other reason than to prove that they were right all along.

 

[Staubacher]

Well I said from the get go he wouldn't win - could have served the first 6 games. We went 3-3 anyhow with him, we would have done the same without. Maybe better because he started slow.

This whole season has been poorly managed from the beginning of offseason.

 

[John813]

Seems odd to drop it, even if he served all 6 games.

So much for fighting for his name

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Yeah, but I was the bad guy acknowledging that obvious fact.

Just get it over with.

I don't think it makes you a bad guy for that particular assessment.

However this is my problem with the whole thing now.

If you're innocent, as Elliott has claimed he and fought this suspension because of it, you do not fight for a while and then quit. Was he ever going to win, no. He wasn't. Golden boy fought the NFL and did not win.

But for me if you're innocent you fight until there is no fight left to be fought. Till someone shuts it down and says you simply have no more appeals, no more avenues, no more anything.

Football and all that be damned. If someone was trying to label me as something of that nature, and it's not true, I'm fighting till the very damn end. It's really that simple. I would have taken no compromise, no reduced suspensions, none of that.

Now you've fought this all this time and your suspension will now be served at an even worse time then it would have been if you'd simply taken it from the beginning.

I don't think he should have taken it (From a personal standpoint, not a fan standpoint) but if you're not going to fight it all the way to the end then it doesn't make sense to have ever started the fight.

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

true but if he wins, will Goodie rescind the mark against his name?

One has nothing to do with the other.
