Let me get this right OP...you think business owners in Arizona should have the right to do what they want with their business, but are complaining if the NFL would use their right to do what they want with their business. Yep, sounds about right for a typical right wing hypocrite.
Just like you guys could boycott a business that doesn't serve gays and publicly shame them, I'm shaming the NFL.
It's called free speech. That is how you can let other people know why they shouldn't like something, buy something from a business, etc, etc.
No where in my OP did I say that their should be a law created that requires the N(Nazi)FL to hold a superbowl in arizona or anything else like that.
Why would I buy Lions season tix when I'm from Arizona?
perhaps he thinks you are some kind of rich guy that will fly to lions games?

yeah, the first time was the result of a democrat governor illegally creating a paid state holiday through executive order, and an incoming governor rescinding that holiday and telling the state legislature that if they wanted an MLK holiday, to go through the process of creating a proper bill to send to him for his signature, which the democrats in the legislature at the time refused to do because they didnt want a republican governor getting credit for signing into law properly an MLK holiday. heck they wouldnt even do it for a democrat governor.

Governor Mecham, the incoming Republican governor, opposed the creation of the MLK holiday.
His own words:
"King doesn't deserve a holiday."
and
"You folks don't need another holiday. What you folks need are jobs."
You will get em on the cheap as folks are tired of this nonsense. Liberals are trying to turn the NFL into another one of their social engineering projects. Just pathetic.
That is patently absurd. Liberals aren't doing anything--AZ's own politicians have reversed course, and if you think it is because of liberals--you are very wrong. The NFL, American Airlines, Apple and Marriot are about money, as is the Superbowl. The religious fanatics need to get over their victim mentality and paranoia. Face it--they are out of massively out of step with mainstream America. Their views are those of fanatics and, frankly, are just as extreme as Muslim extremists and every other religion that holds extremist views and wants the rest of the world to conform to their views. It is not going to happen, so really all the fanatics can do is go start a commune, live by themselves and let the rest of the country--along with the world--move on. The The NFL, American Airlines, Apple and Marriot and the majority of the country do not need Arizona half as much as Arizona needs them. The most bizarre thing of all is that those endorsing discrimination call themselves "christians." No way Jesus would ever approve of discrimination. The "christians' endorsing discrimination are going to be very dismayed upon arrival in the afterlife.
Lol. So you're a liberal who left the liberal disaster city of detroit and brought your same stupid beliefs to Arizona?
How long till you and your liberal gang homies ruin the city your in now?
It's not a conservative/liberal issue, it's a rights issue. The law upholds religious freedoms at the expense of equal protection under the law. (By the way, equal protection has been upheld by the supreme court time and time again.)
tell it like it is HappyHarley, this is just another reason that pro league suxxx! I'm way ahead of you all on the boycott tho, i aint cared about them and their labor stoppages or other garbage for a decade now.
I only watch College Football and High School Football, football the way its suppose to be.
Nothing like friday night lights...........nothing at all. I sit next to an old guy.....been going to the hi skool games for fifty years.........his kids and grandkids are done but he goes because he loves to watch the kids play........the way it's supposed to be like you say.
You can rest assured most players are against the proposed Arizona law. I keep telling you, inside the NFL is far from being right wing. The funny thing about it is, that for the few homophobes that are in the NFL, most are black but lean left anyways. But go ahead and keep playing your fantasy Monday Morning QB.
I said nothing about the players. Liberals who have never played the game want to now regulate it out of existence. That is what I'm saying. Folks "outside" of football want to tell them how to play, what they can say........on and on. Pay attention.
My god you're obsessed with liberals... now they're trying to destroy football? Yes, they want to destroy what pays for their lavish lifestyles. Makes sense.
No it appears liberals are obsessed with trying to mandate how football is played.
