Jon Gruden sues NFL, commissioner over ‘forced’ resignation

The emails in question reveal, among other things, Gruden criticizing Colin Kaepernick

PM: Jon Gruden, the former head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders, is suing the NFL and Commissioner Roger Goodell, according to a lawsuit filed Thursday alleging that the league sought to destroy Gruden’s career and reputation through a “malicious and orchestrated campaign. Gruden’s lawyers wrote in the 21-page complaint that he was “forced to resign,” Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.

“Through a malicious and orchestrated campaign, the NFL and Commissioner Roger Goodell sought to destroy the career and reputation of Jon Gruden, the former head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders,” reads the lawsuit filed in Clark County District Court. “When their initial salvo did not result in Gruden’s firing or resignation, Defendants ratcheted up the pressure by intimating that further documents would become public if Gruden was not fired.” more

  1. Gruden has done more good for the NFL than Goodell, which is easy to say unequivocably since Roger the codger has DESTROYED a national pastime for American fans.

    I also hope Gruden bankrupts the League since I’m sick of hearing about them. They’ve been dead to me for years now.

  2. Sticks & stones:
    Gruden called something gay in an email.
    Aaron Rogers didn’t get the jab.
    Henry Ruggs III KILLED a 23 yr old woman while driving drunk at 156 MPH.

    The first two got 10 thousand times the press.
    Yet NOBODY died for their “indiscretions”
    FUCK THE NFL & MSM!

  3. No chance!
    6 years ago a candidate for GOP nomination pointed out that the most liberal President in history was BFF of Roger. NFL ratings have been in a 6 year decline.

    That WOKE President but the liberal Roberts in!

    dIf lower courts do not kill this Roberts will for the umpeenth time NO STANDING!

  4. I hated him as an announcer on MNF but the cancel culture Bullshit that seems ONLY to apply to Conservatives or Males needs to stop.

    I hope he gets double what Colon Crap-Stick got!

  5. Four politically incorrect e-mails out of how many thousands in a league full of entitled thugs is all they could find? LOL!!

    Forget football. I want some real entertainment. Let’s get Alec Baldwin on the witness stand with Binger asking him the same questions he asked Kyle Rittenhouse.
