NFL 2014

[Midwest Spy]

All the Seahawks players say he's a good teammate. Sounds like he's generous too.

There's got to be a more professional manner in which he can present himself around the media.

I think Pete said it best. He's just doing his best to be himself. I say good on him for not bending or breaking to the NFL's rediculous rules.

Being himself, blah, blah, blah.

The NFL is a brand. There's such a thing as brand image. People (fans) spend millions on merchandise, sponsors spend millions in advertising, networks pay Billions in television rights.
Sorry BG, but his individualism has to end at some point if he wants to cash his paycheck (or see some of it removed).

And absolutely none of that is at risk if he doesn't talk to the media. And no, I'm not on board with your "get with the program and let go of individuality" column of thought. If he wants to wear gold shoes, who gets hurt by it? Nobody. The rules are stupid. That's why so many players are supporting him. The "No Fun League" needs a slap in the face because they treat their players like pieces of meat.

I agree with No Fun League when it comes to things like outlawing end zone celebrations.

As long as a celebration finishes in say 30 seconds or less, what's the problem?

As for the rest of your feelings, we really are at opposite ends of the spectrum.
