Looks to me the NFL isn't near as embarrassed by drug users, drunk drivers, wife beaters, rapist, child abusers, animal abusers and whole assortment of thugs and low lifes as their are about Christians being in their midst!

Had that t-shirt said, “Islam is the Light,” there’d be nary a peep of protest.

How insensitive, harassing, and intimidating to exhibit such a message publicly!

As evidence of that spot-on analysis, look at how Tim Tebow was drummed out of the league. In contrast, the vile sodomite thug Michael Sam was forced on the owners by Goodell, who is also a muzzie enabler.

While I think it is idiotic, the NFL has cracked down on press conference clothing before (and in-game clothing many times) & it had nothing to do with religion.

The NFL just needs to die a painfully slow death.

They’ve been glorifying the ghetto culture way too long, and paying their “players” way more money than they’d be really worth in 10 lifetimes.

Their treatment of Kurt Warner was bad enough back then, but what Tebow went through (and probably RGIII soon) was atrocious.

if they don’t want a player to acknowledge their Christianity...

then i guess they aren’t trying to target the Christian market.

stop watching anything they broadcast and never buy anything they sell

The National Football League, an exclusive organization which makes it possible for a select few with extraordinary talents to show their stuff, is becoming and has become a weak entity. If the NFL doesn’t stand up to the insanity it is submitting to then it will become a flag football league, and I’ll be rolling the floor from laughter that this once great and powerful sport has become powder puff. Why not open the NFL up to women? Would only be fair. The Great OZ has spoken.

I’m just gonna go ahead and guess that if any of you owned a company that paid millions and millions of dollars for NFL sponsorship you’de be pretty strict about who wore what. And you’d be well within your rights.

I’ve conducted my own boycott of football since a few years ago, some would say that is Un-American, I say screw them all.

So many find it a thrill to feed the beast, but I’ve observed that there is no sport anymore, outside of the back yard or neighborhood empty lot.

The NFL is a league of abusers, and except for Green Bay (owned by the fans - me included), the owners are morons... including Robert Kraft.

Acts 4:18-20 applies:

…And when they had summoned them, they commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus.

But Peter and John answered and said to them, “Whether it is right in the sight of God to give heed to you rather than to God, you be the judge; for we cannot stop speaking about what we have seen and heard...”

Funny how RG3 appears to be for everything the NFL is against ... peace, love, tranquility, good behavior ...
