So in an effort to police racial slurs in the NFL, they are going to call 15 yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalties for racial slurs. I do not condone the use of the N word which will be the primary flag I would assume but imagine late in the game a player mutters something the official "thinks" they overhead and starts tossing yellow laundry on a crucial play that decides the outcome of what was up to that point a terrific football game.
So now the NFL fan has to worry about hard hits, late hits, and now racial slurs late in these football games rather than being able to enjoy the product on the field. The last 4-5 years I have been feeling less and less enthusiasm for the NFL but this policy they are going to adopt is just another in a long line of Roger Goodell policing that IMO is only going to make the game worse. Again, I don't condone the use of racial language but the majority of the NFL is African American to my knowledge. Was this something the players were pushing for?
I see games now being decided because a player cusses at the end of the game. Where does it end? Interested in hearing if anyone else thinks this a bad idea or maybe the SP thinks this is an excellent idea. What say you?
