Bravo sir bravoIt's Goodell's NFL....Sort of Alice in Wonderland, what's up is down, what's down is up....
Science doesn't matter and a guy who beats his child with a switch gets an integrity award......
Adrian Peterson Wins Art Rooney Sportsmanship AwardThe award is presented each year to an NFL player who best demonstrates the qualities of on-field sportsmanship, including fair play, respect for the game and opponents, and integrity in competition.
I missed the first part, did Jeffrey Dahmer win the Walter Payton Award??

Let’s say, for the sake of argument, that AP is actually the most sportsmanlike player of the last decade and that - on the field - he exemplifies everything this award stands for. Who is in that meeting and saying “yes, let’s award AP” ? No one in that room is standing up and saying “guys, this is bonkers... we can’t do this” ? I know the League is crazy, but really ?
No, he got the Julia Child award..........I missed the first part, did Jeffrey Dahmer win the Walter Payton Award??

This is basically a facelift for a guy that’s retiring and whose image the league is desperately trying to clean up. Should call it the Ray Lewis Award. There isn’t an organization scummier on earth than the NFL.
...at least he's dead and can't be on a cooking showI missed the first part, did Jeffrey Dahmer win the Walter Payton Award??

Which is funny in its own right b/c Art Rooney was a degenarate gambler who fixed games so his team lost and he won. He almost lost his team to the Outfit in the 50s. Only his relationship with Bert Bell saved him.

And Michael Vick was an honorary captain the the NFL's Pro Bowl..
Gotta wonder how the NFL picks and chooses any of this stuff.. there are so many really honorable players, why pick from the bottom??
