Re: Why does the NFL have restrictions on Madden?

One thing that absolutely has the NFL's finger prints all over it is the fact that after a huge hit...you never see anyone get injured with a concussion....coincidence that they are being hit with a lot of negative press about how they handle concussions? hmmmmmm

Is it really that far from the truth? I'd say no.

Look at whats taken out.... dreads, tattoos, styles of dress prevelent in Af-Am communities (in the NBA), how can you say that that is not race related.

Much of America doesnt want to see "thugs" and "criminals" in there house, and unfortunately many of the stereotypes associated with those things have strong racial connotations.

Don't get me wrong... I 100% agree (which is why I was expecting it to be said).

It's just that I don't know how other people will interpret it (i.e. "RACIST!").
