The NFL used gender to choose their employees who would deal with spousal violence issues. They've dug themselves such a deep hole by pandering, I can't see how the NFL comes out of this without being permanently tarnished.

And what about naming a team the Broncos or the Bears? In these times of concern about promoting non-violence in their players, should the teams be named after wild out of control animals? I think not. (sarcasm, of course, hopefully)

My college’s team name is “Ragin Cajuns”. As a Cajun, I could as easily be offended by taking the word “Ragin” to be negative, and the gripe writes itself after that. The NFL is not about football anymore. One has to watch a pre-game show that looks more like a perp walk.
