Vikings' William's Block NFL Suspension

A district judge granted Vikings DTs Kevin and Pat Williams a block against their four-game suspensions for using a banned substance.
The Williams Wall again has a temporary restraining order against the NFL. The judge also scheduled a July 22 hearing to consider whether he'll put a hold on state court proceedings while a federal court entertains other issues in the case. As the suspensions continue to get pushed back, the Williamses appear more and more likely to be eligible for opening day.

This is so annoying, just accept the suspension and take your punishment. They blocked it at the end of last season and they do it again. Oh well, good loophole.

Lol true, oh well I guess they really think there's a chance they win the case, otherwise they would just take the first four games rather than risk the possibility of missing games later in the season.
