NFL suspends Ezekiel Elliott six games

Last year, Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliottemerged as perhaps the league’s brightest young star. This year, Elliott will start the season on a suspension for domestic violence.
The NFL has suspended Elliott for the first six games of the season. The suspension comes as a result of Elliott’s ex-girlfriend saying he assaulted her in July of 2016.
A looming suspension has long been discussed, even though Elliott was never arrested or charged with domestic violence and has insisted he did nothing wrong, and even though Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has insisted the franchise is steadfastly behind its second-year running back. The six-game suspension is in line with the NFL’s policy on domestic violence, although that policy is flouted so often as to make it meaningless.
Elliott will surely appeal the suspension, and the appeal should be heard well before the start of the regular season.

lots of things on offense to be concerned about last night but hey on the bright side.... we won!

and the new instant replay process seemed to really speed up that time vampire ( although i dont think the call could have been much easier to make)  and the shorter halftime apparently was noticeable as well for those watching live.  i was making wings and doing some honey do's so I didnt get started until a little later so I just FF through it.

And it's at the end of the pre-season? Did I hear that right?

If so, the repercussions are big and the scrambling at the end of pre-season will be un-precedented! 

Wonder how they graded out last night? I saw TJ @ G.

More of the same from the 1st teamers.  Poor pass protection with the dink and dunk offense, and run D is still pretty soft.  Overall, I think they played ok at best, but this shows how much they still need to improve on the OL.  Glad I watched, but I didn't see an improved anything.  Typical 1st preseason game, and good thing there's plenty of time before the "real" game 1.
Go Vikes!

It is preseason and the Vikings are playing uninspired football.

NOBODY in the chat room? It's the Cook show so far!

OR  Buffalo chicken quesadillas... not sure if I'll try to grill those or not... probably not timing is everything. 

Anyone else having a opposing team themed menu?
