Cowboys zeke elliot suspened 6 games

You are still on this? Criminal and Civil are two different things. You do not have to commit a crime to be punished by the NFL. We have been through this already.

And, there's plenty out there saying the League may have screwed itself this time.

Only Cowboys fans this season.

I have already said repeatedly that Goodell is an ass and has way too much power. I personally can't stand him. However......the players gave him all this power. I am pretty sure the new CBA will revoke all his power. I am sure there is going to still be still penalties for power but he is not (and should not) have power any more.

Is there a point? I am pretty sure in Boston they give our air pump needles for free.

The Ezekiel Elliott Appeal Is A Potential NFL Nightmare

Is that it? They way you make it sound the whole world is in an uproar over this. The NFL will be fine. Most people outside of Dallas really don't give a shit.

There's more, I'm just not going to post every link I find. The thing is you as a Eagles fan is just crossing your fingers Elliott gets all 6 games, when its very likely Henderson does take some of the games off, and even if he does, there is a chance this case removes Goodell's God Authority.

Only a fool would simply say "6 games? OK I'm goid with that"

And you are probably one of the biggest homers around. I get it....most of us are homers when it comes to our teams. You seem to ignore everything that does not find some way to suggest that Zeke is going to get off. As more and more information comes out it leads me to believe he is going to have his suspension upheld. The only question is how many games. New information shows him using a rough sex argument and that he liked to use drugs in college. I LOL at the rough sex argument and find it stupid he would try that this late in the game. Admitting to using drugs is showing a pattern that he has not changed. Now I am not going to sit here and say he is using now. He has not come up positive so until he does we have to assume he is clean. However...his partying is keeping him in the news. He does not know how to stay out of the limelight. That is going to be his downfall. If he does not straighten up he is not going to last in the NFL.

I really don't give a shit if he sits out none or if he sits them all. I think the Eagles can beat the Cowboys with or without Elliot.

I'm a firm believer in letting evidence dictate guilt. Zeke being a Cowboy has no bearing on evidence his accuser is a liar.

you are as big a homer as there is on this board. You'd also have less than a thousand posts if not for your jaded views on all things Dallas.

If that's the case he should just confess to the Columbus police too. Because we all know the NFL has better trained investigators than every police force out there.

While he's at it, confess about murdering Natalie Wood.

I'd take him. He's going to play at least Week 1 and I suspect another 14-15 games too.

Q&A: What to watch Tuesday in Ezekiel Elliott's efforts to remain on the Cowboys field this season

Q: When will arbitrator Harold Henderson rule on Elliott's NFL appeal?
A: This is crucial. What happens next hinges on the timing of Henderson's ruling. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell appointed Henderson as his designee.
The hearing could last several hours. There is no witness testimony, but Elliott/NFLPA and the NFL will both make their cases. Elliott's motion showed that he will contend, in part, that "it is hard to imagine how the NFL could even try to deny that Elliott will suffer severe and irreparable harm to his season, career and reputation should he be suspended for six-games -- nearly half of an NFL season, where careers are precarious and short."

Q: Why is the hearing in Sherman, about 60 miles north of Dallas?
A:Elliott and the NFL Players Association filed suit in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, which includes Frisco, where the Cowboys are headquartered, and it was assigned to Judge Amos Mazzant III in Sherman.

Q: Does Elliott want a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction?
A:Tuesday's ruling will be on the preliminary injunction. Elliott requested either in his legal motion, but a preliminary injunction can last longer since a hearing will have taken place. Elliott can also appeal immediately if Mazzant rejects his motion for a preliminary injunction. He would ask the Fifth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals to stay the lower court's order and the suspension pending the outcome of the appeal.

Q: Will Elliott be at the hearing?
A:He doesn't have to be, but it might look good for the judge since he is seeking an emergency motion that includes the claim he would suffer irreparable harm. However, the Cowboys have a walk-through practice and meetings Tuesday afternoon in Frisco.

And - one of those "expected" shoes has dropped.

NFL files opposition to restraining order, motion to dismiss Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott's case in federal court

The NFL, as expected, filed a motion to dismiss Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott's and the NFL Players Association's lawsuit in U.S. District Court on Monday night. The league also filed an opposition to Elliott's pursuit of a preliminary injunction. A court hearing on the matter is scheduled for 5 p.m. Tuesday in Sherman, Texas.

Elliott has yet to receive a decision on his appeal of his six-game suspension through the NFL disciplinary process. Arbitrator Harold Henderson is expected to rule soon, and while it's considered unlikely, he could still reduce or vacate the suspension. The wait for a judgment didn't prevent Elliott and his representatives from filing suit late Thursday.

The league's responses call out the NFLPA for the timing of its filing as well as the legitimacy of its standing.

"The NFLPA claims that it is likely to succeed in its claim that the underlying proceeding was 'fundamentally unfair' in light of certain procedural and evidentiary rulings by the Arbitrator," the NFL's filing reads. "But this is hardly the first time the NFLPA has made this argument. Courts around the country have consistently and squarely rejected it, along with every other attempt by petitioners to second-guess arbitration decisions upholding NFL player discipline."

The league also questions how the players association can request a restraining order enjoining "something that does not even exist."
