leonwash29 Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 A Minnesota judge ruled Thursday that Vikings defensive tackles Kevin and Pat Williams must serve four-game suspensions stemming from the StarCaps case. The two are expected to appeal the ruling. The case will likely be taken to the state Court of Appeals. From there, the losing party could appeal to the state Supreme Court. The Williamses will ask to be able to play during the appeal process as they continue to argue that the NFL didn't allow them to explain their use of StarCaps.

Greenranger Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 We play them week 5, did they hand down a suspension when this all first started? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leonwash29 Posted May 6, 2010 Author Share Posted May 6, 2010 i dont think they were ever suspended but if somehow it gets delayed a week or two cause of a appeal that game is ours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycdan Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 If the Vikings had any say in the matter, they'd probably want the appeals to be staggered so they only have one out at a time, but in the end, we have to beat whoever they put on the field. Without Favre (which looks likely at this point) I like our chances very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without Favre (which looks likely at this point) I like our chances very much. IMO Favre will be back. Too close to another ring to drop out now.

Without Favre (which looks likely at this point) I like our chances very much. Every team that has multiple suspensions want them staggered. I didn't see the Ellis and Pace suspensions staggered last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenseed4 Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 True, plus if a team had it's choice it probably wouldn't want it's two best run-defenders in street clothes when they play the league leading running team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
