So the NFL has told Azeez Al-Shaair they’ll remove him from the game if he wears a Palestinian child’s name, who was killed by Israeli airstrike, on his eyeblack. Psychotic. This harms no one by letting him do this. I think it’s absurd they were fining him, but those were the “rules” and he agreed to pay the fine. Removal from the game is INSANE. This shouldn’t stand!
NFLPA on field situation in Brazil for Cowboys, Ravens game:
"The concern heading into this week was the field would be loose, patchy, and lead to excessive slipping. Those conditions are generally more of a playability and performance issue than a significant injury concern. ... Based on our experts' assessment, the field needed better traction and stability. They recommended reinforced stitching to help the surface hold together and brought in equipment to reinforce as much of the field as possible before the game."
if it was just about “eye paint” like they claimed then they would’ve just kept silently fining him, we already knew it was more than that but this just confirms it
