Quote:Good point on controlling the image of the NFL, after all it is a business.  But, it's ridiculous to say the NFL could not care less about gay rights. 

 

Okay, maybe some people who work for the league care one way or the other.   But as an entity, the NFL does not care much either way.   It wants to appear that it does, but as you so correctly point out, it is a business and the business of business is business.   They care about the bottom line, not whether a gay guy gets a fair shot of not.   

 

Or, as Michael Corleone said, "It's not personal, Sonny.  It's just business."  

 

It's not social engineering.  It's just business.
