Ezekiel Elliott withdraws appeal

[davey999]

Team is going nowhere anyways. Time to focus on being more aggressive in the offseason to address our weaknesses.

Now GARRETT can go 1-5 the rest of the season and of course get a pass. This man has never ever ever had any success without a key player missing time. So here is free pass. Ugh what a disgrace. It's always something with this team

He had the get out jail free card regardless.

 

[cowboyblue22]

he was always going to serve the suspension misght as well get It over with this season is over any way this team will end up 7 and 9 I said before the season they would be 8 and8 looks like its going to be the under

Nonsense.....it went 5-3 with Kitna as Interim HC!

 

[Direwolf63]

Can he still file a civil suit against the NFL?

He can. But the odds of winning that are also close to nil.

He may do it for optics. That he is fighting to restore his name until the end.

My ONLY hope out of all this mess is that this leads to the demise of Roger Goodell. He is destroying the game that we have all loved our entire lives.

Goodell is about to get a massive $250 million extension that includes health insurance for life and use of a private plane.

He's fine.

y


Your so right. Good point

 

[Bleedblue1111]

Just punched a hole in my wall with Goodell/Mara/Blank/Friel/Failla's faces in my mind.


Not stupid though, remodeling my bathroom.

He will get his extension soon.

It's very very selfish to me of Zeke.

Oh goody. Another en.

 

[Beast_from_East]

Just because you say it doesn't make it true.

I actually watch the games and with no Sean Lee and with no Tyron Smith and with no Zeke...............we aint making the playoffs bro

That's called reality

 

[kumizi]

So the situation ends like every non homer predicted it would.

 

[pacy]

I guess it only took a couple of days in France or whatever to decide that his reputation was not important?

France can do bad things to you.

 

[dragon_mikal]

Bye bye, future guaranteed money.

LOL...Jerry will pay him.

 

[DFWJC]

When do we start the draft shows?

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

Zeke got screwed big time, and the courts bent over for Goodie Goodell. It was a rigged process.

The NFLPA screwed up by filing early in Texas. Up here, no judge would dismiss the case based on a technicality like that but US conflict of laws and jurisdictional rules are different I guess. No judge would sit on a case where her husband drafted the legislation she is interpreting. Still the PA blew it and cost Zeke big money.

Hopefully now, the NFL will no longer see the need to have its officials screw us over game after game after game.

 

[Direwolf63]

Or, he's in Amsterdam with a room full of hookers and a bed full of coke. Who knows?

He's on his own for six weeks. Hold your breath.

Maybe he's taking up temporary residence in the Vatican.

that is not the reason for him appealling, it is his name

what is a shame is that again white america and the white establishment screwed over a minority big time

 

[Alexander]

I don't see why this impacts anyone's thoughts on the team's immediate prospects. Did people think he was going to serve four games or get some miracle he could come back sooner?

 

[CATCH17]

Is he still fighting to clear his name though?

No the courts did that a long time ago.


This was always more about the NFLPA vs the NFL and helping Zeke get his suspension reduced was just an added bonus.
