believe what you want ... I have an inside source ... it’s not a bribe, it’s protection money ...
There’s a difference between “bribes” and “protection money” in this instance? I think you and I are in violent agreement on this. The NFL is paying to keep these groups from speaking out/protesting against the NFL. That does include the players in the locker room, but I don’t think many players would put their careers at risk, YET, until they have other sources of income.
No different than the annual corporate “donations” to Jesse Jackson and the Rainbow-Push Traveling Road Show.
