The NFL is a monopoly and its time for the Justice Dept to break it up.

But that would require Jeff Sessions to wake from his coma.

The US SC has ruled twice that they are not a monopoly.

The Justice Department cannot do that. It is a private business. A sports business, a sports league.

It's also dangerous to the players brains, so the Surgeon General needs to put in place a requirement that the outer shell of the helmets must be at least three feet from the skull.

A speed limit will be enforced so that any player hitting another player at a speed greater that 10 mi/h will be ejected from the game and prosecuted for assault with intent to inflict permanent grievous harm to the player's brain.

Tackling will be banned. A flag shall be pulled out of the pocket of a runner to stop his (or her) forward motion.

Also, teams must put away an additional 25% of each player's salary to cover their nursing home costs and health care after they retire with a skull full of mush.

only Congress can do that since they passed a law giving the NFL a special exception to the anti-trust laws.
