NFL needs to tell them, do it and you forfeit the game & you will pay cash refunds to all ticket holders.

The march toward civil war. As far as I’m concerned, there is no Martin Luther King holiday.

Here's hoping they go oh-fer the year.

As far as I am concerned, they can do as they please. I do not worship the god of the nfl, so whatever they do is o.k. with me. At one time I followed the NFL. Then the thugs, criminals,and goons took control and I stopped following it. They can jump over the moon if that is what makes them happy.
