President Barack Obama said if he had a son, he would have to think "long and hard" before he let him play football and suggested he--along with other football fans--watches football against his conscience. "I'm a big football fan, but I have to tell you if I had a son, I'd have to think long and hard before I let him play football," Obama said.
In an interview with the left-of-center New Republic, Obama said football will "probably change gradually to try to reduce some of the violence" and that may allow fans to not have to "examine our consciences quite as much" while watching the game.
"And I think that those of us who love the sport are going to have to wrestle with the fact that it will probably change gradually to try to reduce some of the violence," Obama said. "In some cases, that may make it a little bit less exciting, but it will be a whole lot better for the players, and those of us who are fans maybe won't have to examine our consciences quite as much."

There is nothing else to say.
Likewise. The only good thing about football is the commercials.
But...”take the violence out of the game”? That’s rank insanity on so many levels that there can’t be a discussion.

In nobamaworld something is wrong with you if you are normal. Unless you (and your children) are homos, trannies, bisexual, bestialist or any other combo of pervert...you are ABNORMAL. Normal is the new abnormal. You will be punished.
“If Obama had a son, he would be a ballerina.”
Not his kid but his former chief of staff as well as the current mayor of Chicago.
He starts trying to mess with football, the South will be seceding again...seriously. He’s messing with religion down there.

PRIORITIES
As the soon to be single purveyor of healthcare in this once free nation, it will now in the financial best interest for the government and ruling class to find many creative ways to control the hemorrhaging of money from the once large coffers that funded this country.
.... In short ..... This laughable new free healthcare system will not only bleed us of our hard earned wages ..... it will also drain us of many of the freedoms that we took for granted. It is very sad to think that all we had to do to end this march against our freedoms ..... was to show up at the voting booth on November 6th, 2012 and vote this administration out of power.
Expect front line roles opened by decree to women in this too.
I think you wrote this as a parody and got it published under some non-Laz moniker, and now you’re chuckling over the fact that the whole world believes it.
Doesn’t “That Guy” have things to do that he’s getting paid to do ? Jobs, cut spending, close the Southern border, etc...
He is a tyrant and Rush has predicted this!
Junior Seau’s suicide and the examination of his brain showed trauma and deterioration. The family has joined the lawsuit against the NFL, so I anticipate more regulations, which is right up the Marxist’s alley!
He throws like the guy trying to teach his son in thge KIA commercial.
What does the first Linebacker have to say about her Nancy-Boy hubbie?
The curious thing is, back in the 60's, hippies (today's liberal leaders) were the "if it feels good, do it" and "do your own thing" crowd.
Now, they are the most regressive, controlling bunch I've ever seen.
I call them the New Puritans.
Obama’s NFL-—National Fudgepacking League.
“watches football against his conscience.”
What conscience? This pansy not only does not possess a conscience, he hasn’t got a masculine bone in his body. His “game” of choice is probably Old Maid. He also needs to bear in mind that nobody MAKES football players play football. Last time I checked, they chose to play of their own free will.
