Question is when will that happen? He's now on the Commissioners exempt list. Just like a suspension, but he still gets paid and there is no end date.

He won't play this season. And he will have a laundry list of requirements he will need to fulfill to even get to a point where they will consider removing him from the list.

He'll have to do a ton of counseling as well as who knows what else. And if he screws it up, he won't play next season either. But he will still get paid.

I'll take your word on that. If anybody would know all the ins and outs of a player suspension it would be a Cowboys fan.

Well there is no way Mason Foster can make those plays. He simply can't run that fast and is terrible once he gets in open field.

Gruden: “I anticipate it will be a while before (Foster plays).” Gruden said there’s no guarantee he ever plays again.

Well there is that

Re: Redskins have claimed LB Reuben Foster

Last yr people cried about Zeke until he got suspended, now nobody cares about what happened. It's part of the process.

In the end, nobody cares. If they did, they'd stop going to Cowboys games, stop watching them on TV, stop buying Zeke jerseys.

None of that happens. Ever. Nobody actually cares about this stuff to actually do anything about it, like turn off the TV on Sundays.

It's all faux outrage, which is why I say this PR storm will pass over like a thunderstorm in July. It gets dark and makes a lot of noise, but it's gone in 15 minutes and you're back in the pool.

IDK about this. You can still be pissed off about a signing and still root for your favorite team. You can be angry, disappointed, voice your frustration. They're going to do things that sometimes you may not like it. I'm still against signing AP but it's not to the point where I'll stop watching. In other words, it doesn't piss me off enough to go root for someone else, but I still have the right to voice my frustration.

Yeah you do, but why should it matter to ownership if you're still going to hand over your money?

If it makes you feel better to vent your frustration go nuts. But farting in the wind is all it is.

Re: Redskins have claimed LB Reuben Foster

Anyone see the news that Doug WIlliams lied. In his statement he said they had candid conversations with his ex teammates. The former fellow Alabama players on the Resskins roster say they were NOT consulted before the Redskins got Foster.

I pray you take a vacation the rest of the year. You've earned it.

You're a Redskin fan who just prayed we lose out for the rest of the year for signing a player in the off chance he's not guilty. I have no regrets.

And I say this as someone who opposes the signing. Just more bad PR for a team that really doesn't need it. Not to mention, what if comes back and turns out to be average? Then we just signed him and took all that bad PR for nothing.

Is the kid stupid? By all means, yes it appears so. Hanging with the same chick after she recanted her story the first time? Not-ah-smaht-mahn. But stupid doesn't necessarily mean woman-beater.

Chances are she’s lying if she’s lied on him in the past but better to play it safe than have Ray Rice part 2 crop up.
