And there's nothing wrong with the NFL not having its super bowl in Arizona. Afterall, they are allowed to choose who they do and do not have business with.

The NFL has not threatened to take the game to another locale. Their only statement is that they are watching developments. There is now no chance in hell this bill is going anywhere but to the dumpster. It is going to be vetoed with 100% certainty. So the NFL will not be doing anything. In fact, rumors are running wild that the NFL will be moving the 2015 Pro Bowl to Arizona as well!
But before that, Jan Brewer needs time to read all two pages of the bill and carefully consider it.

She just got back in town last night. She has to play the politics game. Says she will first meet the stakeholders as she does with all bills and then decide...blah, blah, blah. Yes, though, the sooner she cans it the better. Word is it will be tomorrow after meetings today. She has a date with the Chamber of Commerce to receive some award on Friday. It might be awkward for her if she has not vetoed it by then, as the CofC has been one of the more vocal critics.
I doubt that this is going to really happen. The NFL does have the right to make this decision as it is a business, however I think they are only doing this to pander to pressure from liberal lobbying groups.
False.
The NFL is a business. They are a very smart business, not a stupid business, like these crybaby cake-bakers. You don't grow your business by compiling a list of people you hate and then refusing to sell them a product.
The NFL makes more money when they create more demand for their product. Gay people do watch football. The NFL has a legitimate concern here. They don't want to be seen as endorsing a discriminatory law. That cuts out future customers.
Frankly, all these stupid homophobic business owners deserve to go out of business simply for being so stupid. Somebody comes into your shop with money in their pocket, you don't send them out the door. Business Administration 101.
The NFL is considering refusing service based on their beliefs. That is what this law allows any business to do. People should be cheering a fine example of how this wonderfully this new law works in real life.
Excellent.
