Immortal13 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Seems legit :) http://www.wfaa.com/story/sports/nfl...call/22193783/ A man incarcerated in a Colorado correctional facility filed a lawsuit against NFL officials seeking over $88 billion in damages because of an overturned call. Terry Hendrix, evidently a passionate Dallas Cowboys fan, is seeking $88,987,654,321.88 from the NFL in the wake of the controversial replay reversal in the Cowboys' NFC divisional round loss to the Green Bay Packers. He names NFL Vice President of Officiating Dean Blandino, referee Gene Steratore and Commissioner Roger Goodell by name. In the handwritten lawsuit filed Wednesday, Hendrix asks for the astronomical sum of money "for but not limited to: negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, and also reckless disregard." Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant made what was first ruled a catch -- a spectacular one at that -- on a fourth down pass down the sideline. After Packers head coach Mike McCarthy challenged the call, it was ruled that Bryant didn't complete "the process" of a catch. Reaction to the play and the ambiguous rule primarily followed the "bad rule, good call" narrative. Hendrix believes his team and its fans were cheated. He calls the video review and reversal a "fraud" and a "gross negligence" that caused "true injury" to the Dallas Cowboys. Had the pivotal play late in the Jan. 11 game been ruled a catch, Hendrix believes the Cowboys would've been in position to secure a win and advance to the NFC Championship. "Dean Blandino, Gene Steratore, and Roger Goodell are wrong and have stolen a victory from the plaintiffs," Hendrix wrote in the lawsuit. "The Cowboys' offensive line would have perfectly created an 'Autobahn' for DeMarco Murray to drive into the endzone for the score and victory." Hendrix presumably arrived at the figure close to $89 billion because of Bryant's jersey number -- 88. The desired sum begins and ends with the number, and Hendrix refers to the Cowboys' star wideout as "Dez Bryant #88" numerous times in the lawsuit. Hendrix, an inmate at Fremont Correctional Facility in Cañon City, Colorado, states that he appears as counsel for "Dez Bryant, all Dallas Cowboys fans and all people in or from the sovereign republic of Texas." The suit seeks permission to move before court within 35 days. In conjunction with the suit, Hendrix filed an application to continue with the case without paying the court fees.

DaveTV1 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I think all of us that know that it was a catch would have liked to have done this, but evidently prisoners have too much time on their hands. Shouldn't he be busting rocks, making license plates, or doing road work ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immortal13 Posted January 24, 2015 Author Share Posted January 24, 2015 He's doing God's work, in my opinion. Granted he can't prove actual damages to base his lawsuit upon, but it's God's work nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have pain and suffering, because of the wrongful actions of the ref's. It should be a class action lawsuit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doomer Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I would not trust that man with a pen. This suit should have definitely been filed with a Crayola. From a legal standpoint, when he signs it at the end he states "further I sayeth naught." This should be enough to waste his paper alone. That phrase ends his chance to elaborate on any portion of the suit. This signs away his right to clarify anything at a future date. What a dip. I bet he just added that to sound smart.

spacegolfer Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 If you only knew how prisons are ran you would be ashamed. Yes prisoners have regular work days and study or personal time. Depending on the Correctional Institution they have great work conditions also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacegolfer Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Lol its hardly a horrible situation I worked at one for a couple of years. There are some folks that break the law just to go back. I put in security systems and electrical at Tennessee Colony and Huntsville and was surprised that the inmates did not have to work outside in the heat or cold because of regulations they had to pamper them. We had to work in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
