This notion that football reporters / players can only talk about football and nothing else is just weird as hell to me.

I like to know what players think about things, what they do away from the football field, etc...and I like reporters who don't just stick to a boring ass script and ask questions that aren't just football related.

For those that are pissed because Baby asked a non-football question...do you also get as pissed when reporters ask players about what they like to eat, or about playing video games, or what music they listen to, or who's the best dressers on the team? 

I usually try to hold my tongue on these kinds of topics, but this whole thing has just been embarrassing as shit to watch.

Quote:False equivalence is a logical fallacy that occurs when someone incorrectly asserts that two or more things are equivalent, simply because they share some characteristics, despite the fact that there are also notable differences between them. For example, a false equivalence is saying that cats and dogs are the same animal, since they’re both mammals and have a tail.

I get using a term such as "hate" appeals to emotion, but my comments are more to the journalistic integrity and the hypocrisy of the NFL given the reactions and fines of what Del Rio said was his favorite food.....

I apologize if you somehow find that point of view "embarrassing"..
