Locally (in Dallas) the word is that there is no current investigation of Ezekiel ongoing by the local police or the NFL or anyone else. Knowledgeable sources have said that, although they respect Schefter as a journalist, they don't know why he--and he alone--is continuing to bring up this old and dead issue about which no charges were filed, no one was hurt, and nothing of evidentiary value ever surfaced that would implicate Zeke in wrongdoing. Adam needs to move on.



The NFL is still investigation the incident, not law enforcement.

I think schefty is a little more credible than your buddies at a bar in Dallas


I'm not talking about what is being said at the local bar. I'm talking about local sports reporters--TV and radio.

Per the USAToday in June

quote:

The NFL Players Association recently turned over phone records and other documents that league investigators have been seeking in their ongoing probe of domestic violence allegations against Dallas Cowboys star Ezekiel Elliott – a potentially significant step in resolving a case that has lingered since last summer.

The players’ union and Elliott’s representatives complied with the longstanding request last week, two people with knowledge of the situation told USA TODAY Sports. The people spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the situation.

The NFL has said only that its investigation is ongoing, declining to get into details.

I don't think visiting a pot shop in Seattle is questionable. Would call an NFL player going to brewery questionable?

I read something recently that the league doesn't want to punish him, but they do want to embarrass him by just letting it hang out there. That's lame if Schefter is doing the league's bidding.

It's not from the shop visit it's the battery case they're talking about.

that's kind of how media works

major media guys who rely on sources and connections with big companies often have to basically be PR mouthpieces for those companies

Is he though really? I think Schefter and Ian Rappaport are equals when it comes to credibility. They have NONE.

Oh and I'm still waiting on Adam to release the "Dez Tape" that was gonna destroy dez's entire career

The chick who accused him of these sent messages to her friends asking them to lie for her to the police. She herself got caught making up the story, and the NFL is still investigating this?

I hate Roger Godell

I opened this thread expecting to see something about Isaiah Thomas (the original one...)
