Regardless the sport, it would be nice to be able to talk just about the sport and not all the scandal for a change.

Fans vote with feet and wallets, that's all the owners care about.
If a major sponsor were to walk away...perhaps.
I think the court of public opinion will force the hand of the league.
That; that's it. My head is done in talking $500 blenders with Mrs Nigh... but that's the obvious answer. Maybe the Susan G Komen foundation sues to prevent the NFL from using its brand or something creates a snowball... back to looking up blenders.
Indeed...this has been a particularly brutal time for the NFL. So much negative press. They say that any press is good press...I'm not so sure.
Has there been a sport, pro or NCAA, in the last year that hasn't had an issue? Seems like there's always something.
Indeed...their use of the pink ribbon is farcical. Just pandering to the female crowd while not donating hardly any of the money they make to the cause. It's sickening that one.
Very true, but for me the it's been particularly brutal in the NFL. Aaron Hernandez comes to mind...he's a bloody serial killer!
Track and Field?
When did the Jamacian doping come up? Has it been a year?
Oh, I forgot about that. It's just sprinters doping, right? When will the Mo Farah "hypo-thyroid" drugs issue come up? (Not just him, but all runners trained by his coach.) Post Balco, I'm less intrigued by these stories, but I guess they're nevertheless legitimate (not hitting your fiancee legitimate, but still.) Just watch a video of David Rudisha setting a 800m WR (he's done this several times) and you'll feel that all is right with the world for at least a few minutes.
I was just thinking of it because of Tyson Gay (former Hog). He just came back a few months ago from suspense for PEDs.
There's probably something worse than PEDs in the track world, but given status of the sport is never going to cause the same splash as NFL, NBA, MLB.
forwarded to me by a friend: a little something tweeted out by a Mr. Harrison, formerly of Pittsburgh.
He seems to harbor (that's harbour to you, lids) some resentment for the commissioner.

@nflcommish ain't no fun when the rabbit got the gun huh?

Vitamix?
Aside from Oscar Pistorius and eating disorders (*Duke women), PEDs are it
