(Scott) "Fujita has spoken out before in favor of abortion rights and gay rights.

“It’s just me standing up for equal rights,” Fujita said. “It’s not that courageous to have an opinion if you think it’s the right thing and you believe it wholeheartedly."

"By and large, the players are more tolerant than they get credit for,” he said. “It’s not a big issue. Some guys will think you are crazy for believing one way, but they’ll still accept you."

you have infringed upon an NFL copy righted product, you now owe the NFL umpteen bazillion dollars for using their product without express written consent.

All Hail the Mighty Corporation!

8. That Maple Leaf in your avatar looks an awful lot like a fleur de lis from where I'm sitting.

I don't think any Canadians should think they're safe from the long arm of the NFL. All vaguely French seeming flowers are right out!
