Is this satire? If not, the teams will be going backward into negative yards territory stats.

This would only be the first. You can come up with a lot of other groups who will want equal standing.

Thank goodness!

It’s ok to hurt someone’s brain with a concussion, but not ok to hurt their feelings with a word.

Way to many penalties. Made the game very boring. Ticket prices are extremely high, I don’t know how a middle class family can afford to go to one game.

15 yards for misspelling a comment about being able to see someone’s knickers?

Gee, how many time you think a black player will get called for using the ‘N’ word?

Wouldn’t a racial slur be unsportsmanlike conduct? Just enforce the existing rules.

Next, personal foul for sneering at the opposition.

Then, penalty for certain words discerned by reading their lips.

What else would we expect from the Pretty-in-pink NFL?

Ejection, sent to the showers, handcuffed to the wall with a 'soap on a rope' tied around his waist.

Will there be a 15-yard penalty for players using the racial slur, “creepy ass cracker”?

The NFL continues to marginalize itself.
