Announcement before the Super Bowl on national television:
"We would like to thank the players who undergo tremendous physical pain every game, will never live a painless day in their lives, many will suffer from dementia and die early - all for your entertainment.
Thanks guys!! And thank you to the player's families for allowing their loved one's to sacrifice life and limb.
ENJOY THE GAME!!:-)"

Imagine a 6'5 290 pound man attacks someone on the street by running into him at full speed and RAMMING his helmet into his spinal cord. He then grabs him around the waist and violently throws him down to the ground.
Everyone watching goes NUTS, giving each other high fives and cheering wildly.
Then the police come and arrest the man for assault and battery.
But on the football field, not only is it permitted but people get paid millions for this.
MESHUGGA!!!
