Ezekiel Elliott of the Dallas Cowboys was notified today by the NFL that he will be suspended without pay for the team's first six 2017 regular-season games for violating the league's Personal Conduct Policy.

Over the course of the last year, the league conducted an extensive investigation. League investigators interviewed more than a dozen witnesses, including Ms. Tiffany Thompson, who had alleged multiple instances of physical violence in July 2016, and Mr. Elliott. The league also consulted with medical experts. League investigators examined all available evidence, including photographic and digital evidence, thousands of text messages and other records of electronic communications.

Pursuant to the Personal Conduct Policy, Commissioner Goodell sought the views of four external advisors (see below) to assist him in evaluating potential violations. These experts range in experience from law enforcement, judicial and public service, and other specialized subject areas.

With all these monuments being pulled down by iconoclasts, one wonders which one is next. Perhaps another Lee...

I’d like to put up a statue of Rog, just for the pleasure of tearing it down.

Sit down these unpatriotic players around the league.
Be consistent! The NFL is doomed. jerks.

Asian dude named Robert Lee, ESPN pulled him from doing a game because they were afraid his name might offend someone.

I know. I saw that on twitter. Couldn’t stop laughing at the idiocy.

This smug totalitarian is why Elliot is suspended.



White washed Clinton allegations in the '90s, is a corrupt bureaucrat in the SEC when hired in 2013 to investigate cases from the housing crisis (Which is a joke itself 5 years later), manipulated evidence of several Saints players and witnesses while investing "bounty-gate", and as the NFL's "external expert" of the advisory panel on domestic violence, she has again covered evidence AND manipulated the appeals process (Her hand writing is on this as of late yesterday's news).
