And you sound like the fans of 31 other teams talking about Elliott: "He's clearly proven guilty of beating a woman! He deserves every suspension he got and the Cowboys aren't being screwed!"

What are even blabbering about?

why does stryker 44 post stupid things?

Jerry never fought suspensions of Hardy or Loen Lett or any other players. I have to assume that Jerry genuinely feels Zeke is innocent and NFL is intentionally screwing him

As much as we all see hor bad of a commish that Goodell is, he still seems to punk Jerry.

Jerry Jones is his own problem.....

That self-made multi-billion dollar wallet begs to differ. He isn't afraid to fail which gives him the strength and moxy to do big things. Things so big that most others are too afraid to even try. You can't win if you don't try.

There is a lot about Jones I do not respect and a few things I deeply respect about Jones. His moxy is definitely something I highly respect about him.

ESPN gets lots of flak. And rightfully so.

But that was an excellent article.

That Outside the lines stuff is incredible...

"Switching commissioners is like switching from an iPhone to a Samsung," one ownership source says. "Do my pictures transfer? Do my contacts? Does my music? In the end, why take the risk?"

Is why the NFL is a sinking ship waiting to happen. This is more like having switched to a flip phone and when it sucks being worried that your next choice in phones may be a bad one.

They really think that Goodell is the only person that can do this job?

Good grief.

As I suspected from the beginning, the entire EE suspension was a power play between Goodell and Jerry. Goodell didn't like being seen as the puppet commissioner and lied to Jerry to get his consent for an extension. Then he basically made the 'evidence' fit his agenda and suspended EE. It's really appalling what happened to EE.

"The New York Daily News" had obtained incriminating evidence from Washington state law enforcement authorities that Friel, with her multimillion-dollar budget, had failed to gather.

Huh, seems like she could have tried a tad bit harder VS the Giants kicker.

One of the best articles Ive read in a long time. I admire Jerry's work with the league. Its a damn shame if the other owners in agreeance with Jones are too weak to stand with him. Although it sounds like most are willing to sacrifice for one more contract. Goodells handling of the last CBA is what is keeping many behind him still.

There's no Moxy in acting like spoiled brat because he didn't get his way which is what he's doing, didn't mind when another teams player was being penalized for deflating footballs but when one of his guys are suspended for conduct detrimental to the league, then he's looking to go to war.....he's sounding more like a senile old man, ala Al Davis, than moxy!!

Up until the Zeke issue, it appears jeri has had Goodell's back

Jerry was betrayed by Goodell.

How could Jerry mind when Brady was suspended for destroying evidence? It's pretty clear cut.

Why does Jerry Jones defend thugs and woman beaters?

And the Commander troll shows up....................whats wrong, got bored watching that sub 500 team in D.C. so you wanted to check out a division rival whose season is not over yet like yours?

This is a garbage response. Brady was caught cheating AND destroying evidnce. The police and the NFL's own investigator didn't believe there was enough evidence for any type of punishment for Elliot. Even the most minuscule ability to reason would easily tell you that is an apple to oranges comparison. One definitely deserved punishment if for destroying evidence alone! The other just straight up got hosed and was very likely a conspiracy to do so.

If I were Jones, I would go straight scorched earth in banishing Goodell for what he did and I would make a HUGE bet that says John Mara is the man behind the curtain pulling the strings.

zeke was straw that broke the camel's back
this isnt just about zeke or the cowboys
its about a guy who has had enough

Well unfortunately he's going to be there most likely as the Commish. So it would just be awesome if he had to hand Jerry the Trophy.

Hand Jerry the trophy?

LOL............that aint gonna be happening with the type of officiating we are going to be getting.

I'm honestly getting tired of hearing about this whole situation. This entire season is just starting to drag at this point, IMO.

There is always the draft...

diefree666 · Nov 17, 2017

sadly the NFL is becoming a soap opera. And a lousy one at that.

Risen Star · Nov 17, 2017

How about Kraft calling Goodell to push him into a Zeke suspension of more than 4 games?

Little weasel.

It seems to me that Jones has a Goodell problem and it won't go away.

Roger Goodell has a Jerry Jones problem
