Re: Steve Bisciotti Needs to Speak
Uh yeah, sure dude. These guys haven't made hundreds of millions in personal wealth by starting non profits. You start a business like most of these guys have from scratch, and you better be ready to slit some throats if you wanna get to the top. Go take a look at Zygi Wolf, the Vikings owner. Guy makes the mafia look like a bunch of Boy Scouts.
Btw, since we should probably address the issue at hand (police brutality and African Americans) could you tell me the exact number of unarmed African Americans killed by police last year?

Re: Steve Bisciotti Needs to Speak
I don't agree with that at all. I actually think it's pretty smart for NFL owners to stay out of it.
The whole thing is a PR nightmare.
First, the NFL isn't losing money. Attendance may be down at games, but they're easily making up for it with TV revenue.
Secondly, as long as the NFL is willing to pay players several million dollars per year to play a game for, at most, 20 weeks out of the year (obviously, there is a lot more that goes into it, but that's what they're getting paid for), the boys of all demographics are going to fantasize about suiting up for an NFL team someday.
Third, as long as colleges and universities are willing to have athletic kids come to their schools and give them the option at a decent education that the student otherwise wouldn't have due to economics or poor grades, boys of all demographics will continue to strive for playing college ball.

Re: Steve Bisciotti Needs to Speak
Oh Jesus... you were actually talking about the players. Which is even more absurd! How many guys you think showed up at training camp driving a 2009 Subaru Outback?
No, these guys are the most spoiled/coddled narcissistic people in the country. Half of NFL players spend more money in one day that entire family's spend in a year.

Re: Steve Bisciotti Needs to Speak
I couldn't fundamentally disagree with what you're saying more.
They may not be losing money right now, but clearly there is a huge drop in ratings and atendence that only looks like it will worsen. The TV deals signed are a looming disaster. On top of that, you alienate 20 million plus fans who basically walk away and give you the finger... yeah, good luck bouncing back from that.
You guys are completely oblivious to the business and financial aspect of all of this. If you don't think that many people will just stop watching cold turkey, you're fooling yourselves.
