We all know I am a football fan, and that I tend pt prefer the “violent” sports (hockey, roller derby, etc), but I also believe that you can make these games safer for the players without losing the spirit of the competition. The NFL says they believe in player safety, as well, and yet…
I don’t know much about the labor dispute with the regular NFL refs. What I do know is that the NFL chose to lock them out, necessitating bringing in replacement refs, and that, sadly, player safety has been one of the things sacrificed by that decision.
