As of this morning both the photos of Robinson and Merriweather hitting "defenseless" WRs are being sold on the NFL Web-site for profit. Total Hypocrisy!

Roger Goodell approves all the content on nfl.com. Get real, someone taking care of the photo section thought it looked like a good picture. I am sure they will take down the content.

You really don't think the NFL would capitalize on these big hits for financial gain? Get real.

Since it is scientific fact that hits like the ones in the pictures have caused brain damage, I think they are trying to cover their butts. Like it or not, it isn't 1975 anymore.

Not arguing that. But they only take down/don't show the ones that actually cause injury. But if the same hit resulted in no injury they sure as shit have it up.

Head injuries are becoming such a serious problem that they are adding 2 more regular season games. The NFL is talking out of both sides of its' mouth.
