Jerry Jones, potential lawsuit vs NFL (https://chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=311415)

Brady and the Pat had to do with the "Game"

Elliott's suspension has do do with what he did in his private life. Just the public's veiw of the NFL's players.

I don't think they are the same. If Elliott has plead the matter down,
taken a SOS, or gone to trial and facts were substantiated as truth then Goodell would have a leg to stand on. Guilty verdict on the crime or not.

Otherwise I do think he has over reached his authority. In this matter, NFL justice is the lack thereof.

And Elliott is probably a sleaze, probably guilty but it's all hearsay as of now until someone says it under oath.

Jones has Papa Johns running around trying to do his dirty work for him.

The commissioner is in a no win situation when it comes to domestic violence. If they leave things to the judicial system and a video pops up the advertisers get mad and threaten boycotts if nothing is done. You suspend a player on a team and 31 teams are for it. Jones was all for punishing Brady and the Pats. Now that it's his player in the spotlight ole Jerry can't handle it.

Jerry, you will never be Al Davis.

The loser in all this is Jason Witten. All his work with domestic violence victims is being diminished.

So angry.

So Reetarded

Jerry Jones is a ****ing crybaby.

He's pissed at Goodell for coming down "too hard" on Elliott and therefore, wants Goodell's contract restructured to give him less money and make him work for incentives.

What a phony ****.

ROFL

So original

IMO Gerald has every right to be "hypocritical " because he's also being incredibly consistent...

Wtf cornhole, you make no sense....

Gerald owns a company and pursues the interests of the company, regardless of nature. He wasn't in favor of brady being banned out of some sense of justice. It increased his own company's likelihood of success.

The zeke suspension is likewise not about justice (although that will be the public PC argument). It is about protecting the interests of the business.

That, my friends, is corporate America.

Jerry gonna Jerry. But no one feels sorry or bad for goodell regardless of Jerry.

Yup, Goodell makes something like 100k a day to be the league's punching bag, for the owners, the fans, the players, and the media.

Sign me up for that gig any day.

**** Jerry, but **** Godell too.

No, **** the 31 owners who are okay with extending Goodell’s contract. This is madness. No sports commissioner is universally hated like this. It’s a terrible look and just the optics of a guy getting mercilessly booed everywhere he goes should be enough to make an extension a no-go. Plus he’s terrible at his job.

They put him in to do exactly this. They wanted to use the Commissioner as a strong arm vs. the players.

He waffled.

It's not his mistakes they hate it's his lack of consistency and his failing to take a stand on anything as a league...

That wasn’t the job of the last commissioner, and I don’t remember people hating the owners. With Goodell I actually have reason to be pissed at the owners. I blame his incompetence on their incompetence. It’s pure idiocy.

I still can't believe people get mad at Goodell. He does what the owners want FFS.

What a ****ing snake. Applauded NFL overreach of Deflategate. Said NFL made the right correction on suspending Ray Rice. But when it's his own player, he goes ape shit. It's one thing to at least attempt to look out for the shield. You can't applaud going after other team's players then go ballistic when that same standard is applied to your own player.
