Not only is it ridiculous not to let him honor his own dad, there shouldn't be any policy against writing on your eye black or anywhere else.

I say that knowing full well that some might write some pretty inflammatory things. It would probably be pretty annoying at times. But I don't know where the NFL gets off thinking it can control what people say. I just love how they want to treat it like this is some sort of suit and tie business. These players aren't salesmen.

The game grows itself. People want to watch football, and while they might not care for some things that players do, they don't let it affect how they enjoy the game. The league needs it's players. The players and the league need the fans. If anyone should be making decisions on what is offensive, it should be the fans.

The guys who think they run the league are nothing but puppets. No one really needs them. They aren't the talent. They aren't the product. Why do they care what players do? And why should anyone care what the NFL thinks? The whole system is a joke.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
