Hey, just don't provide security for the games. Let the players pay for private security.

Free speech is a bitch sometimes.

The NFL knows what side its bread is buttered on.

Hands up don't shoot as a Michael Brown chant is totally corrupt and dishonest.
But don't let that get in the way of a good community agitation.

"Corrupt and dishonest" is all they have.

If they were telling the truth, their chant would be "Don't rob, don't loot. Don't hit the po-lice, and he won't shoot."*

Mike Brown established himself as a threat once he strong-armed the clerk in a robbery.  Attacking a police officer and trying to take his weapon didn't do him any favors.  The outcome is unfortunate but entirely justified.

Those Rams players should have concentrated more on playing the game and earning the big bucks they're paid than making their uninformed political statements. The Rams were one of the worse teams this year. Perhaps they could have been smart enough to be just a bit worse so they could have first round draft pic. The Bucs in the Tampa area at least should get a good potential player for next year. Both teams are seriously bad. And those Rams players with that hands up thing are really stupid.
