Roger Goodell would certainly give Mitch McConnell a run for his money in a spine-bending contest.

‘Ray Charles’ could see this coming.

Remember when the NFL Players sued the NFL for banning the use of the “N word” at any NFL facility including practice fields and stadiums etc?

One of the excuses was that it was discriminatory because NO ONE used the word anymore except Blacks talking to each other, thereby the restriction was entirely racial.
(or something along that line)

He can’t take action now....without really blowing things up.

Should have settled this problem in the off season like they do with everything else and enforce whatever when the ‘fiscal football seasn’ started.

The league controls everything else including a dress code. I have no doubt what so ever that the league could have stopped this as soon as it happened. It would have been stopped immediately if it was a non liberal cause. I love the game of football but I'm through with the NFL. Let them choke on their ignorance.
