NFL files in New York anyway

Of course they did, they figured they were probably going to lose based on the judge's questioning, so try to get a venue change

They're assuming a TRO will be issued Friday and are attempting to avoid a drawn out court battle with the associated injunction that keeps Zeke on the field most of all of the season.

My guess is they're hoping the court will rule in his favor using Brady as precedent, which is unlikely given the inherent differences in the cases as I understand them.

I hope they face legal scrutiny over the delay in Hendersons decision today. Once they realized they were losing their motion to dismiss the case Henderson somehow suddenly releases his ruling. Bull Crap.

It's sad how our favorite sport and entertainment is being run by these kind of people that will act sleazy in an attempt to hold every ounce of power.

How do these guys even file lawsuits 24 hours per day? I've never seen a court house open at midnight.

 

[guag]

Yeah, good luck with that, NFL.

The NFLPA filing happen first and will take precedence and jurisdiction of the injunction.

The NFL is becoming a joke with this absolute power they continually seek. It is blatantly obvious to anybody with knowledge of the Zeke case that the NFL is working on an agenda. Zero objectivity here.

I pray that the end result of this mess is that the league is exposed as the hypocritical, divisive, pretentious organization that they're proving to be. And the corruption seems to start at the very top.

But what good is the New York Federal Court ruling in the NFL's favor and the Texas Federal Court ruling in Zeke's favor?

Can you have a split decision in two separate jurisdictions involving the exact same case?

I suspect the judge in TX will vacate their filing and admonish them for trying to go around him. HE has the ball in his court pun intended.

As this also was foretold in the ancient scrolls of unidentified and questionable parchment

No! One will defer to the other and it seems it would stay in Texas

The league is a joke. Goodell making more than its brightest stars, to run it into the dirt is a travesty. Zeke aside, why is the “sanctity of the game” such a priority over the actual product. I’m sick of this nonsense. I’ve got a wife with cancer, and kids who need my guidance I’m close to not having any room for this farce in my life

The inner workings of this NFL drama is as scandalous and contorted as any "Game of Thrones" plot but it's real life.

That's some tough news to take my Friend, somehow I'm not in such a up beat mood, I'm sorry for you, and wish you and the family the best of all possible outcomes.

 

[Real1st]

They dont want the case to continue in Texas because the dirt is going to be exposed. Sorry Roger and Harold. After the TRO is granted the next step is you are coming down to Texas to testify.

 

[xwalker]

Another issue the NFLPA needs tol address in the new CBA. They should insist on getting things moved out of New York.

Hate to hear that bro, my condolences..................honestly, I am not even excited for the season anymore, just tired of this crap. Its pretty clear the league is out to get Jerry and the Boyz, I have no idea why.
