    Cut Tre, and in fact - Jackson hit's harder and can cover really well. Also won't drop easy peasy pick 6 balls, or let the jests score at ease.

    The New York Giants’ future would look a lot different today had one play turned out differently in their 17-14 loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.

    With a little more than five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter and the Giants nursing a 14-7 lead, Atlanta had a second-and-goal on the Giants’ six. Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan overthrew rookie tight end Kyle Pitts in the end zone. The ball sailed over Pitts’ head and into the hands of Giants cornerback Adoree’ Jackson for a possible game-sealing interception.

     

    Except Jackson could not reel the ball in. It fell to the turf and was called incomplete. On the next play, Logan Ryan was called for pass interference giving Atlanta a fresh set of downs from the one-yard line. They scored the game-tying touchdown two plays later.

     

    After the game, Jackson had no real answers for the miscue.

    I bet she’s making a play to get an ownership stake in a team. She’s bringing a ton of viewers to the nfl. Not sure which team would need an investor. 

     

    She has enough money to make a play to get an ownership stake in a team by offering to buy part of a team with the billions she currently possesses.

     

    Dating Kelce and breaking up with him in a few months won't affect that.

    Weather.com is saying that the biggest impact in Washington from the tropical storm will be on Saturday.  Sunday, they are predicting showers with 10 -15 mph winds.  That's enough to affect the game, but not enough to destroy any semblance of a passing offense.  Washington is already going to make a deep passing game difficult with their pass rush.  Too much wind will make it that much more difficult.  I expect Buffalo will make heavy use of a short passing game like they did versus the Raiders.

     

    Excuse me

     

    In reality, timing for this storm won't be known until it hits tomorrow, which will beyond suck if you traveled to DC early for the game.

    The NFL would have also obviously interviewed the reporter since he allegedly made the statement, but since nothing came of it he must have said he never made the statement.  That means Trotter heard something that never happened.

     

    That's about as bold an assumption as those who assume Terry said what he said. As I mentioned to Motorin, that could certainly be the case, but it would sink the lawsuit and be a brutal move by Trotter's lawyer.

     

    The NFL has had countless instances of saying one thing and doing another.

    You have issues following logic.

     

    Trotter says that a reporter at the dinner told him about the comment.

     

    The NFL claims to have interviewed everyone at the dinner and no one remembered it.

     

    Then why is this quip included in the lawsuit? It's strong enough without it.

    You seem to be leaving out the possibility that the reporter in question lied or exaggerated the statements during the 2020 zoom call where Trotter heard the allegations, bur told the truth during the investigation.

     

    As well as the possibility that Trotter made up the Zoom call incident all together...

     

    Where is the "unanimous source" to verify? 

     

    Or is Trotter "protecting" them for fear of NFL retribution, so we'll all just have to take Trotter's word that it really happened the way his source said it did? 

     

     

     

    David Gottlieb, Trotter's lawyer, not Trotter, is the one "protecting" the so-called source. 

     

    You seem to be leaving out the possibility that the reporter in question lied or exaggerated the statements during the 2020 zoom call where Trotter heard the allegations, but told the truth during the investigation.

     

    This is certainly possible. The lawsuit would be dead in the water if this was specifically the case.

     

    The follow-up example of Trotter not being interviewed regarding the direct first-hand remarks he heard from Jerry Jones, however, gives credence to the inclusion of the anecdote on Pegula. Trotter's case against the NFL is strong even without the Pegula quip.

    So how do you know the reporter wasn't interviewed by the NFL in the investigation? 

     

     

     

    Based on the logic of the Buffalo News article regarding the investigation

    A league source told The Buffalo News that the alleged comment was thoroughly investigated, including interviews with Terry and his wife and co-owner, Kim Pegula – who both denied the statement – and every other person at the dinner where this conversation purportedly took place.

     

    The investigation took place shortly after the comment was brought to the league’s attention, and no one else from the dinner recalled the statement being made, according to this source, who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

     

    The dinner took place in 2018 and no one complained about the purported racist remark until the 2020 NFL Media video call, the source said.

     

    The reporter – not Trotter – who brought it up on the call claims to have directly heard the “Africa” remark, David Gottlieb, one of Trotter’s attorneys, told The News.

    #3 cannot be true if #1 and/or #2 are true.

     

    1. Every person at the dinner denied the statement was made

    2. No one else from the dinner recalled the statement being made

    3. The reporter claims to have directly heard the "Africa" remark

    He demanded they investigate in 2020. Over an alleged verbal remark from 2018. 

     

    Let's do some basic math here. That would be like you walking into HR today, in 2023, and demand that they investigate offensive remarks that Bob told you he heard Jim say two years ago, in 2021.

     

     

     

    So if the reporter wasn't at the dinner how could he possibly have heard Terry make the remarks? 


    The reporter was at the dinner.

  8. 2 minutes ago, Motorin' said:

    The law suit does not say the reporter who made the claims wasn't interviewed. 

     

    Per the Buffalo News report everyone at the dinner was interviewed. However, this is illogical as the reporter who overheard the comments was at the dinner. Therefore, the reporter who made the claims was not interviewed. It's not in the lawsuit because it's Trotter's case, not said reporters.

    It says Trotter wasn't interviewed. Which has no baring on the case, because he only heard of it second hand two years after it supposedly happened. 

     

    It has bearing on the case (the case against the NFL - not against Terry, which does not exist) because it is a second set of evidence beyond Trotter's first-hand conversation with Jerry Jones which was Trotter claims was also not investigated properly. In that scenario, the first-hand witness to the comments (Trotter) was not interviewed.

    But the ***** issue is that Trotter's law suit states as fact that Pegula made those statements

     

    It does not state his statements as fact.
