Re: Report: RGIII Told By NFL Not To Wear ‘Know Jesus,Know Peace’ Shirt For His Press Conference

“RGIII was wearing a t-shirt that said ‘Know Jesus, Know Peace.’ NFL Uniform Inspector Tony McGee (former Skins DE) approached Griffin,” Phillips tweeted. “McGee told Griffin he couldn’t wear the shirt because it wasn’t a Nike product. Made him turn it inside out for the press conference.”
Sooo...Turning it inside out made it a Nike Product and ok to wear?

Yeah, I didn't think so.

Here is the problem!

From the article: "CSN Washington reports that Redskins linebacker Ryan Kerrigan wore a t-shirt from Five Four Clothing to the podium for the postgame press conference and was not asked to change his shirt."

I hadn't heard about this one! Wasn't Will Smith in some trouble for fighting with his wife a few years ago?

I understand about the Nike deal.

If one can wear a non-Nike shirt, then all can no matter if is a U.S State tourist tee-shirt or religous or vulgar or whatever.

So you can openly admit your gay in the nfl, but God forbid you proclaim anything about Jesus. This world just gets more and more twisted.

I doubt it is an anti-religion rant by the NFL; every time a player gets injured, players from both teams get together on the field and pray.

We have all heard players on TV thank God for helping him make a play, or achieve an award, etc.

I don't understand why the league wouldn't let RG III wear a non-Nike shirt but didn't do anything about the other player's non-Nuke shirt.
