Former Las Vegas Raiders coach, Jon Gruden, had a judge rule in his favor to bring his leaked emails lawsuit against the NFL before a jury. The decision comes after the league tried to force the issue into arbitration and to have the case dismissed. Neither of those bids was successful, and now Gruden will have his day court. Was he unfairly ousted by the NFL? We're all going to find out. The NFL released the following statement after the court's decision:

 "We believe Coach Gruden’s claims should have been compelled to arbitration, and we will file an appeal of the Court’s determination. The Court’s denial of our motion to dismiss is not a determination on the merits of Coach Gruden’s lawsuit, which, as we have said from the outset, lacks a basis in law and fact and proceeds from a false premise — neither the NFL nor the Commissioner leaked Coach Gruden’s offensive emails."
