The NFL Issues Statement Regarding St. Louis Rams "Hands Up" Display

IT APPEARS AS IF THE NFL WILL NOT ISSUE ANY FINES AGAINST THE ST. LOUIS RAMS PLAYERS WHO STAGED THEIR OWN SHOW OF SUPPORT ON SUNDAY

After five players from the St. Louis Rams raised their hands before a game in support of Michael Brown, the St. Louis Police Association took offense; demanding that each player be punished.

Now the NFL has released it’s own statement on the matter via its Vice President of Communications, Brian McCarthy:

“We respect and understand the concerns of all individuals who have expressed views on this tragic situation.”

For once it looks as if the league may have gotten something right.
