News: PFT: Federal judge reinstates Ezekiel Elliott suspension

[Doomsay]

Hope Goodell enjoyed his inflated salary while it lasted. Jerry, get that SOB.

Jerry will beat his flabby chest and continual to get paid.

You seriously underestimate how stupid and weak the NFLPA is. The owners have them eating out of their hands. It will never change. Ever. The owners and commish will always hold all the power in the NFL.

Exactly and SI agrees with you. De Smith was just re-elected just like Goodell will be. They will complete the likely demise of the NFL over the next 5 years.

What was her reasoning?

I am woman hear me roar...........

 

[punchnjudy]

this is rough

If an appeal could delay it 3 more weeks, that would help. Not sure how that would work though.

 

[TRUTH87]

It's about buying time, bro.

I'm not on some mountain with a nice, round tinfoil hat on thinking he'll beat a dirty arsed rigged system, just want him to buy the season.

According to Schefter, he has 24 hrs to throw a wrench in the NFL's/courts cogs

hell yeah it sucks. we are on a 2 game win streak and we’re trending upward. this hurts man. i’ll be down in dallas for this game too lol happens we will probably have no zeke. this sucks...

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

this is rough

I don’t know I see washington , SD, NYG as all wins. The others we’ll be the underdog but 2 of those are at home.

[TWOK11]

What was her reasoning?

That the NFL acted fairly on the basis that they have the authority to effectively suspend anyone for anything.

All along Zeke's only chance was to show the NFL violated their own process outlined in the CBA to do so. Trying to argue he didn't do it is dumb because it's irrelevant, legally speaking.

 

[erod]

If that’s the case, the nfl will not survive being the number one sport in the country.

Not true. The NBA, MLB, and NHL get ridiculouosly pathetic ratings. So much so that networks no longer want to broadcast their games during the regular season.

 

[EST_1986]

he’s running out of appeals

Zeke has 9 lives bro he’s only on life 7

 

[HeavyBarrel]

This league is so full of itself is nauseating.....What other entertainment entity seeks to punish its stars???? My gosh the NFL takes itself waaaay too seriously

 

[Trouty]

hell yeah it sucks. we are on a 2 game win streak and we’re trending upward. this hurts man. i’ll be down in dallas for this game too lol happens we will probably have no zeke. this sucks...

Brudda, I hope somehow, someway Zeke is in there for ya, my man

I honestly hope it happens. The demise that is.

 

[Doomsay]

And that the season, folks. Get ready for the draft.

Shut up Buck

 

[River82]

Lol. We lose yesterday without Zeke.

Yesterday was the SEVENTH game. He'd have been back for it.

 

[pitt33]

She said arbitration was fair.

The league did their due diligence on this case.

Was it fair? Who really knows.

The league office wasn’t going to screw this up and the judge saw it that way.

 

[BRoni]

So basically, judge is saying arbitrators can accept whatever evidence they want and discard what they don’t.

Just wow.

I don’t see any other way to read it. I want players punished if they are guilty, but the NFL honestly has nothing.

 

[thisiscowboyscountry]

Agreed. Losing Zeke is a huge blow. But there are 52 other guys on this team

Mcfadden and Morris clearly aren't as dynamic but very capable of carrying the load. I think you'll see some very motivated backs grind out yards, while we lose the big play ability of 72 yard screens to the house. Other players obviously have to step up including the defense.

 

[StylisticS]

Not true. The NBA, MLB, and NHL get ridiculouosly pathetic ratings. So much so that networks no longer want to broadcast their games during the regular season.

Nd yet they continue to broadcast them.

Brudda, I hope somehow, someway Zeke is in there for ya, my man

thanks brother! hopefully he gets on the field this weekend. i was talking to my cousin not too long ago about zeke playing and with our luck get suspended the game we are going to lol we’ll see man!
