Like I said on an earlier thread. Don’t penalize the team. Fine the player $10000 for each violation and keep a running tally on the big board with their name(s).

And, they can also give the referees special rainbow-striped flags to use for these infractions....

Is it black players shouting “the magic word” at each other in the heat of a game?

More Political Correctness and the PC Police...rude behavior is the norm for these gladiators - grown up bullies cum spoiled brats...you want them swishing about? Line backers bowing to their opposite saying “after you...”? or “one lump or two dear? Take the field mikes off the players if trash talk among the players bothers someone......

...the Fritz Pollard Alliance monitors diversity in the NFL…

LOL. Diversity? What diversity? They only need to take the mitten off one hand to count the white guys on a typical team. Or are they monitoring the Chinese? Filipinos? Mexicans? Indians? Portuguese? Swedes? Chilenos? Native Americans?

Well we will see the end game soon. This will get to be a joke every time someone says something that someone else doesn’t like. Say good bye to the sport.

15 yards? That’s nothing! It should be 50 yards!

Will they penalize a white player if he calls another white player a “white nigger”?

Ok...some questions here...

Will black players (or is it playahz?) be penalized for saying "My niggah"?

Will black players be penalized for saying "Cracker" or Crackah"?

What else is to be penalized as 'racial slurs'?
'Wetback'?
'Jew bastard'?
'Fat Samoan'?
(Obsure reference: "I wouldn't go so far as to call the brother fat, I mean he got a weight problem. What's the niggah gonna do? He's Samoan.")

I could expand on this list but the point is...it's a slippery slope the the NFL should back away from saying, "No thanks."

But then there is Roger 'Dodger' Goodell. He'll dive in face first to plant his kisser into the Obama Regimes collective arse.

will there be instant replay to determine whether it’s the “er” word or the “ga” variant which we all know is totally different to verify that the word was uttered by a white, which would be a violation - or by a black, which would be completely acceptable.

They didn’t have this before?

USA Hockey has had a game misconduct for racial slur for as long as I can remember.

Rule 601
(e) A game misconduct penalty shall be assessed to any player or team official who is guilty of the following actions:
(1) Persists in any course of conduct for which he has
previously been assessed a misconduct penalty (player)
or bench minor penalty assessed to the team (Team
Official).
(2) Uses obscene gesture or a racial/ethnic slur anywhere in
the rink before, during or after the game.
(3) Interferes in any physical manner with any game
official, including off-ice officials, in performing their
duties.

This is so stupid as to be a joke.
What is “offensive language” anyway?
Do the eternally offended get to decide?
Where does it end?

So, how are the home boys going to address each other if they can’t use the word ‘nigga’?

That’s right O$hithead, let’s force divisiveness right into the front line of football. I can see many more lineman fist fights coming from this only to gain 15 yards. What a racist farce!
