Amazing how there is a bunch of trades to deflect attention.

So, "we caught her lying about one incident, but think she was telling the truth about the rest"? How does that make any sense?

If bullshit decisions like this are going to come down the NFL can go fuck itself. I have no desire to watch games in a league run by corrupt cunts like Goodell and his puppet master Mara.

This shit would never hold up in court and Goodell is nothing more than a court jester or judge, jury and executioner if you will. It's nothing more than he said/she said. I fully expect there to be an episode of Law and Order:SVU about it within a few months.

I know I'll never spend another money on anything NFL related unless it's something bootlegged.

Oh look, they're replaying the Cheatriots/Jaguars game on NFLN. Fuck it, I'll watch a soap opera before I'll watch that crap. I haven't been this livid about something football related in a loooong time.

Yep, they aren't getting one fricking penny from me. I was reconsidering my decision to renew Sunday Ticket but this shit slammed the door on that thought. I won't even visit NFL.com with all their clickbait crap.

He's basically being used as an example.

And yeah, he has acted like a shithead at times and probably needs a wake up call from someone. He's a goofy kid with rock star status, no doubt in need of some direction.

But if the league says that these 6 games stem only from the July 2016 incident, there must be some concrete evidence that he beat the shit out of her. I would like to read their report.

Also ridiculous that he now has to stand in front of Goodell for the appeal.

Cancelling my Sunday Ticket over this. Jerry also needs to raise hell; it can't be a coincidence that Josh Brown only got 1 game when he admitted to beating his wife. There's a clear pattern of favoritism by the NFL.

The letter is complete bullshit and their logic is absurd. It basically says that that the victim has pictures of injuries, Zeke was around her on the dates that she took the pictures, so he must have caused the injuries. It completely ignores that she's known to have lied about him hitting him on at least one of the occasions, and that other sources claimed that she suffered the injuries fighting another woman in a bar.

I just read the letter to Zeke. Since he wasn't able to explain how she got the injuries, he must have been responsible.

Despite her saying that she'd ruin him and asking folks to lie about it.

If he really did it, why would someone need to lie about it?

And again, the guy is immature as hell...but now you have to find who actually committed the crime when you're accused, or you automatically did it yourself?

Him not being able to tell the league how she was injured makes her statements "credible." LOL
