It appears she is a little busy at the moment. We will try again later.
It's Lisa, but well-played anyway...:laugh::lmao::lmao2::bow:

you know how many times we've heard if he get injunction he'll likely play this entire season
This next round will be the final word on Elliott playing this season. At this point, IMHO, there is no way the actual hearing itself (not the injunction, I mean the hearing on the complaint itself) gets concluded by December. So what CA2 says regarding an injunction will cover the 2017 season.

so the NFL will have no appeal rights if they grant another injunction?

What's the NFL's next move now?
The next move is to have a 3-judge panel on the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals decide whether or not to make the injunction permanent or not. Each sides' next move is to file appropriate briefs for that hearing. I believe they are having it next week with a decision by the 14th (but don't quote me on that).

Whole situation is like a booger...just hanging around: can't get rid of it. I want this to be over. We need him to beat KC, but after that just serve the 6 and be done with it. Too distracting for everyone IMO.
I can't take the mood swings I experience with all this nonsense

Correct (because the USSC is not going to take a case where one party is appealing an injunction). EDIT: As links18 points out above, it would have to go to an en banc panel first and I apologize for my omission, but keep in mind this is about an injunction, not the actual case itself.... so there is no way this goes any further than CA2's 3-judge panel.

To be clear, this is an injunction that allows Elliott to play until the NFL and NFLPA argue their cases before Judge Failla and she renders her verdict. I do not believe that hearing has been scheduled yet and I doubt it will be heard and adjudicated by the end of the season.

I thought it was before the 2nd circuit?

Good news. Hopefully the panel will see things out, unlike the bought judge that just ruled
