If the Fritz Pollard Alliance had their way, they would have referees throw a yellow flag on players they catch using the N-word towards their opponents. Earlier today, the group sent a letter requesting that the NFL add a rule where teams would receive a 15-yard penalty or even an ejection for "abusive language."
While you gotta commend the effort by the Fritz Pollard Alliance, you simply can't enforce such a rule when there are players in the league that simply use the word in such a casual manner, even when there's no malicious intent behind it. Do you agree or disagree with the group's proposal. Sound off in the comment section.
