speech off unis primarily & really only due to the Slippery Slope.

In the case of 9/11, it was so universal & encompassing it got or gets a pass, whether one agrees with it or not.

The League & Owners are the only ones that will make that choice. I hope they don't personally as I think it cheapens the game, any game while fattening teams wallets, but history & logic dictates that they will go after that money grab sooner than later. We are already seeing it on some team's practice jerseys.

               Pretty much - Grasslands MU - 8/27 19:13:24
               Didn't want a flood of "endorsement" "solicitation," etc on - STL1DFW STL - 8/27 15:08:46
                    I think teams would be wise to stay away from endorsing - tjwheeler UI - 8/27 15:14:55
                         Well, I was saying that I agree with keeping political - STL1DFW STL - 8/27 15:26:01
                              And from a business standpoint, it would be stupid to do so. - tjwheeler UI - 8/27 15:28:35
                                   No, that's not what I said. It makes business sense - STL1DFW STL - 8/27 15:46:52
                                        eh? I was talking about taking stances on political issues. - tjwheeler UI - 8/27 15:48:24
                                             Well, then, we don't disagree there, except our reasoning - STL1DFW STL - 8/27 16:07:01
               Showing respect to murdered officers is a political position - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 8/27 14:48:54
                    So you don't think politics were involved? - tjwheeler UI - 8/27 15:04:38
                         Politics can become involved in anything - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 8/27 15:21:55
                              I think that's a naive position, but okay(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 8/27 15:29:00
                    It is 100% a political position (nm) - pickle MU - 8/27 15:01:23
                         How is showing respect to murdered public servants - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 8/27 15:02:20
                              Why now? Why not last year? Why not 10 years ago? 20? - pickle MU - 8/27 15:09:26
                                   Because the attack and murders in Dallas - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 8/27 15:22:53
                                        Really? - pickle MU - 8/27 15:27:51
                                             Yes, the decal was for the Dallas officers - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 8/27 15:30:08
                                                  it is inherently a political act - pickle MU - 8/27 15:48:12
                                        How about a helmet sticker for this woman: - ummmm MU - 8/27 15:26:54
                                             That is not even tangentially related to this issue - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 8/27 15:30:53
                                                  She was murdered in the Dallas area - ummmm MU - 8/27 15:32:23
                                                       She was not a public servant - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 8/27 15:35:41
                                                            Are teachers public servants?(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 8/27 15:40:08
                                                            Your rationale sure sounds political to me (nm) - ummmm MU - 8/27 15:37:07
                                   yep - tjwheeler UI - 8/27 15:15:44
                              Why not put on a helmet decal in honor of this guy - ummmm MU - 8/27 15:07:47
                    Well, yeah (nm) - ummmm MU - 8/27 14:57:30
               Because the NFL has its head up its ass. - Tigrrrr! MU - 8/27 14:44:45
                    Seems they'd be endorsing a political position(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 8/27 15:05:09
                    "I don't like it, therefore NFL has head up its ass." (nm) - pickle MU - 8/27 15:03:04
