LeonardPart6 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 9 hours ago, stethant said: This is entirely correct. He'll lose the temporary restraining order case and then be out week 2. Or, he'll win the TRO and then get booted by the NFL's case in their friendly NY court. Brady already went through all of this and lost - with a stronger case. The courts do not re-create the wheel when they have precedent to go by. As far as the courts go, the facts that lead to the suspension are completely irrelevant. I read that the NFLPA filed suit "first" to have the appeals court in a friendly TX court. Apparently Brady did it wrong because they waited for the NFL to file the appeal and they got their choice for a friendly NY court. I'm thinking Zeke's got a better shot than Brady at beating this....no pun intended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard that too but not really sure how likely any court is to side with the players, as stelhant explained they've given NFL the right to punish without proof, and not sure how a court can rule against that.

Gourdeau Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Especially given that there is a public video of Zeke pulling that girls shirt down, Tiffany Thompson may be not credible, but Zeke clearly has no respect for woman based on that video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Def. Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Meanwhile at the legion of doom... Quote NFL suspended free agent K Josh Brown six games for violating the league's domestic-violence policy. This means nothing in the grand scheme of things because Brown is/was never going to play again after he was given a one-game ban last year and subsequently released by the Giants. A habitual wife-beater, Brown had allegedly been physical with his ex-wife more than 20 times over a six-year period starting when she was pregnant in 2009 all the way through a 2015 Pro Bowl incident. Cause nothing makes you more credible then suspending the guy again a year later when he just happens to be constantly brought up in regards to the current Zeke case. Not like he had a chance of every playing again anyways, so why not just throw that out there. What a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowboyz1 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Oh, yeah. Good on you Jerry. I had a feeling Jerry was going to give the NFL all they could handle. Texas judge, high powered lawyers, etc.......The NFL are going to have their hands full with this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
