Thank goodness it was not a woman.No charges + Zeke = 6 game suspension

It says more about the people who care about the video than it does Zeke. He - nor any other athlete - should have to worry about that nonsense.
What'd he blow for you to know he was "sloppy drunk?"
Blah blah blah blah blah. Yes, athletes are celebrities, but it is an indictment of YOU, not of Zeke, if you care about that video. It's clickbait and heavily edited so as to be misleading.You are living in a fantasy world.
First of all, every person should worry about actions that could potentially land him in jail, whether he is an athlete or not.
Second, it goes with the territory that athletes become celebrities and are in the spotlight. That's not a secret to anyone else, including the athlete, nor should it be to you. Athlete's don't get to pretend they are Joe Schmo who works in the local feed lot and has too many drinks at the county fair in Topeka, Kansas. And the reality is, Mr. Schmo could get arrested for the same actions in Topeka, Kansas, just as Zeke could have. For all we know, Zeke's celebrity may be what kept him out of jail.
And 3rd, the NFL is not the only business that does not want high profile members of it's organization caught on camera being sloppy drunk and acting stupidly, nor is it the only business that has the ability and willingness to take action when someone does so. The NFL is a consumer oriented business, and it's natural they would frown on high profile employees being seen in a bad light.
That video is not 'clickbait'...... Zeke had to be restrained because he was being very aggressive with his girlfriend and with the security guard..... it could easily be considered assault and batteryBlah blah blah blah blah. Yes, athletes are celebrities, but it is an indictment of YOU, not of Zeke, if you care about that video. It's clickbait and heavily edited so as to be misleading.
You are making assumptions that you know he was sloppy drunk. You don't know anything, and don't know what the security guard said/did. Is it stupid if Zeke got in his face b/c the guard called him the N word?

Dude is sloppy and a party animal... we know he smokes weed and does X tooZeke had to leave 4 hours later to get back to Dallas for his morning football camp.
Did he look like a guy ready to conduct a kids football camp?
Exactly ..... it was clear he was about to go offI care about that video because it could affect his availability to play football for the team I am a fan of. I want the guy to have a long future of success with the Cowboys, not be another talented idiot who couldn't get his stuff together. If it weren't for that I wouldn't care one iota if he was a drunk idiot that got thrown in jail.
As for making assumptions that he was drunk, I'll say this - if he wasn't, he is an even bigger idiot than I think because that would mean he acted like that sober.
But really, have you never been around drunk guys that acted like that before? I've seen it a thousand times. It takes a lot to assume he had a clear mind while acting like that.

I have been that belligerent drunk and have seen that behavior hundreds of time in my youth
Zeke has some issues with partying and violence.... the sooner he gets some help the better
Coddling him and denying it is not helping anyone
No, you and everyone else cares about that video because people try to paint Zeke into a particular character.I care about that video because it could affect his availability to play football for the team I am a fan of.

Yeah he's definitely going to serve games for this but it's cool, we got Tony Pollard.
When does this hell end?

He has a huge target on his back and he doesn't seem to careI wonder how people would react if it were there own son in their mid 20's? Would they say "it's okay that you almost got arrested - you are young and it's okay to act like that", or would they say "son, you have a real opportunity to be successful and make a great life for yourself, and decisions and actions like this can only jeopardize that"?
No, you and everyone else cares about that video because people try to paint Zeke into a particular character.
I'll ask again, what if the guy called him the N-word? Would it matter how drunk he was to get in the guy's face?
I've been around sober guys who were like that, some people are just jerks. But again, we don't know what started it all.

Wait is Future trying to argue that he wasn't drunk or even high? You can tell just from the way he's walking around at times.
And your 2nd paragraph is spot on. If he wasn't drunk, he looks like an even bigger jack hole.

As for what he blew (other than an opportunity to conduct himself in a responsible manner) that proves he was sloppy drunk, being sloppy isn't about the number, it's about the actions. Some can have a higher alcohol content and remain relaxed and not bother anyone, and others with a lesser alcohol content can act like an idiot. Regardless of what he would have blown if tested, Zeke acted sloppy and like an idiot.
