wow, pretty surprised. Can't wait to see the Judge's reasoning.
EDIT: Apparently Goodells doesn't have jurisdiction, and Stephen Burbank does. Thats why suspensions were voided. Weird.

I am very happy!
The suspensions of Goodell were ridiculous

Interesting. I wonder how many of them will be fit/ready to play this week (also if anyone notable gets cut)
I thought the application was for an interim injunction rather than full appeal thought?

Does this impact the coaches as well? Or solely the players?

Yeah that was my understanding as well. All they gain from this is a temporary injunction to halt the suspensions.

Expected
Just like the appeals court will overturn the ruling - know your judges and play in the right court

I know Fujita has been practicing with us all preseason, so I assume He'll be ready to play. |

Very interested in this, as well.
I will say that I'm a little shocked, however.

The coaches did not file any lawsuits or appeals. As I understand it that means the court has no jurisdiction over those suspensions.

not for me

Good for the Saints players, and their fans.
I'm sure good ol Roger is steaming right now. Sucker.
Now I wonder how long it will take them to get into game shape.

Wow is the only thing that comes to mind. Now, does Burbank have the authority to reinstate any suspensions? Or is this a DONE deal?
