Dump the NFL, America.
There goes the game of football.
So now the NFL needs to develop a stance on domestic violence?
Isn’t the NFL already against domestic violence, as well as all other criminal activity? Didn’t they deal a severe suspension to Ray Rice? What more need to be done? What am I missing? What are the criteria being used to evaluate all of this?
“The gist of it is that the league attempting to change the outside perception of how it handles domestic violence”
Yeah, that’s the key, let’s just change “perceptions,” but hold none of the players accountable for acts that would put the average Joe in the slammer. It’s all about the NFL, and the money involved. Can’t have the “gladiators” locked up, it’s bad for business!
Now in order to see real men one has to watch Australian Rules Football.
You have been a very bad boy, Roger. Now come take your punishment!
In my opinion, woman have always been allowed into the football experience. I know a lot of women who are football fans, but it was on football’s (read men’s) terms. And the woman understood that. They put on the jerseys (cute, by the way), and screamed their lungs out. But now they want to chickafy it, and thereby ruin it. Football is going PC, gay, and chickified. Aren’t there enough places in America for these things?
Looks like the females have already made their mark. Refs are flagging everything more serious than an annoyed look.
Men have the option of filing charges. If they don't because they think that would make them sissies or other men would ridicule them for being sissies, that is the choice of men.
If you (men) want this to change, stand behind your male friends who are in this situation rather than laugh at them.
time to stat the real men football league. nfl is over.
The ongoing pussification of America takes a giant leap forward.
Oh oh. Time to break out the bags of jelly beans again. What about those players who are beaten up by their wives or “significant others”?
What a two-faced hypocritical society we now live in.
So much sobbing and thrashing about over domestic violence and little boys pointing finger-guns at each other but many of the same people vehemently defend the abortion killing of more than 1,000,000 babies in the USA every year.
Is it acceptable for a hulking football player to beat his wife or girlfriend?
No.
But the same people who are offended by that have no problem with an abortion doctor giving birth to a perfectly healthy baby then killing it by jamming a pair of scissors into the baby’s brain.
Two-faced hypocrites.
After they've eliminated any reason to watch football, they can move on to the next soft target.
From here on, NFL players will have to get written permission to initiate relations with a female. The policy won’t apply to Michael Sam.
Women need a remedial course in using the Easy Bake oven.
they don’t have supra rights to physically attack another human being without jeopardy.
Exactly where is the groundswell of support for all this crap?
“Women slapping men in the face? Allowed. Men hitting women? Banishment.”
Sounds like a sport where the scorekeeping and rules are all messed up.
Fox reported tonight that the NFL has added a “Vice President for Social Responsibility.”
No extra points for guessing what issues they tackle next.
