Sept 16 (Reuters) - Anheuser-Busch publicly chastised the National Football League on Tuesday for its handling of domestic violence cases, making the NFL's official beer sponsor the first major advertiser to put pressure on America's most popular sports league.
In a brief but strongly worded statement, Anheuser-Busch, the maker of Budweiser and NFL official beer Bud Light, said it was "disappointed and increasingly concerned by the recent incidents that have overshadowed this NFL season.
"We are not yet satisfied with the league's handling of behaviors that so clearly go against our own company culture and moral code."

Conservatives laughed at Hillary Clinton for suggesting that it takes avillage to raise a kid..I guess she meant it takes a beer company...
They make nothing...they bottle dog urine and market it to the gullible public that has never really tasted good beer.
Good beer has more than a little alcohol in it. The watered-down swill they call beer is what is left in the mop bucket after the putzfrau is done mopping the floor of the Gasthaus.
Then the corporations should pull their ads and sponsorships
These beer companies better shut up here. This is the Same mob of do gooders that brought us prohibition.

Arian Foster rips Anheuser-Busch’s statement on NFL’s issues

Drink Coors. It’s a simpler relationship with your palate.
Monty Python’s “Bruces” from the Univ. of Woolamaloo: “American beer is like making love in a boat. It’s
f-—ing close to water.”
I’ll admit to having cheap Bud Selects at the 99 (restaurant chain) but lately I go for Yuengling or beers like:
—William Penn (Pittsburgh)
—Smuttynose (Finest Kind IPA, Hampton NH)
“They should just change the name already to the National Felon League.”
And change the name Budweiser beer to Pisswater.
“The panty waste Left doesn’t like American style football. It’s too American. There’s a New World Order dontcha know, and that NWO likes Soccer.”
There’s a number of hand-wringing, bed-wetting leftists here on FR who want to kill the NFL. They also support Romney, Graham and McCain. We call them RINOs.
Usually it’s the bullets...
