http://www.shreveporttimes.com/story/sports/nfl/cowboys/2017/10/19/nfl-argues-ezekiel-elliott-injunction-should-lifted/781560001/

"Lawyers representing the NFL argued in a filing in federal court on Thursday that Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott's preliminary injunction -- which prevents the league from suspending Elliott -- should be lifted.

The 23-page response filed in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York comes two days after Elliott secured another injunction, which means he will be allowed to play at least through Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers."

Sucks that he's still being jerked around by the league. They should not be allowed to suspend him if he hasn't broken any laws.

Suspensions don't simply come from legal matters...

Code of conduct
There shouldn't be courts involved at all. The players union negotiated the bargaining agreement and then every time one of their superstar players is punished within that agreement it goes to courts, which inevitably end up ruling in the NFL's favor because THEY GAVE ALL THE POWER TO THE LEAGUE in their negotiations. Every time they do this s**t, they ensure they are going to be locked out even longer next time.

And the owners are going to win again because the players have a limited shelf life...

A lot of lawyers are making a lot of money stringing this case out. The sad part is this; even Elliott's attorneys are not denying the facts in the case. They only object to the way the hearing was conducted. This seems to be just a ploy to pad the billing hours.

BREAKING NEWS! Elliott now facing charges of rape after destroying the 49ers defense's butt hole on Sunday afternoon.
He abused the 49ers more so than he does his women!
Got me 46 fantasy points. Scored 209 total points this week lol

Can you elaborate on this please? Because everything I have read says that the NFL has ZERO FACTS in this case and handled the investigation as poorly as humanly possible. So what exactly are you claiming that Zeke's attorneys are not denying?
