The tough yards. The finish on the play,” Romo said while watching a replay of the run. “Right there, you got three ni —Talked about this. The best tackling team. They don’t miss tackles.

Ok! Any word beginning with the racist letter "N" has to be banned. And...that includes NFL.

So sick of living in a society who’s singular focus is racism, real or imagined. Non-stop. That’s all we ever hear about. Instead of seeking space exploration, our society spends all of it’s resources “fighting racism”. 5 black police officers commit crime agaist a black person? Racism! It’s really a dystopian novel that our society has descended into.
