    Default The NFL as the catalyst for a Brady Bunch Utopia...

    Does anyone believe a single word of this? It appears that there is an agenda afoot...they said it, so therefore it must be. Proof? Validity? True? "So to all you little linebackers out there, look and see what your "Heros" are doing...turning in their guns because they're BAD!" And who the hell says, "I don't trust myself with these guns in the house. Please take them away." At least take them to Mass and get a free flu shot for crise sake!

    Well, if you don't trust yourself with guns, by all means, turn em in.

    Hmmm.... "at least 7" out of 1800+(just counting the active rosters and not the practice squads)...doesn't sound like a landslide of support to me.

    The NFL should have some kind of free gun safety/training program like they do with their rookies on handling all the new found wealth. Hell if 3 out of 4 have them, then it would be a good thing right?

    Agreed, but NFL players "turning them in" just doesn't sound plausible. Sell, give away, trade, OK, but "turn in?"

    BTW, the "Voluntary Firearms Turn In Point" just happens to be co-located with my house...

    I think it would be great if they said "I will not turn in my guns, because our constitution gaurantees me the right to own one. And I will not sacrifice freedom for security, because I will get neither. How does it feel to stand in the blood of victims whenever you want to push you gun ban agenda? Do you ever get sticky? You are a horrible person and you make me sick." But that is just me and that is what should be said but chances are they will cave in a political way that brings shame on the whole sport of Football.
    I guess I'll have to start watching Soccer until they bring back the XFL.

    7 Players out of 1800+ turn in their guns and now all NFL players are implicated?

    Ooooh-kay.

    No they moved the Turn-In box from your house to mine. I have a box set out front for curbside drop off.

    You guys are both behind the times. The dropoff location has been moved to my shop. Each operable weapon turned in will receive a free chocolate chip cookie. People attempting to turn in toys, rusty junk, or cheap crap will be ruthlessly mocked and ejected. No cookie.
