http://arrowheadaddict.com/2011/09/08/jamaal-charles-will-wear-special-cleatsgloves-to-remember-911/ Briggs on our team (Bears) wore them to practice today and i think a few others may wear them in the game. i thought they looked pretty cool!
says, "never forget" on both palms of the golves and never (right foot) forget (left foot) i'll see if i can get a pic at/before/after practice tomorrow.
looks like it might cost him.... http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...-fined-for-wearing-red-white-and-blue-on-911/
leage saying its not in compliance with uniform... players are like, "we wear pink all OCT long for breast cancer, why cant we do this to remember 9-11?" gonna be a big to do. stay tuned! i normally wouldnt even talk about this stuff (nfl) but i feel strongly about this weekend in particular. vendetta, its gonna go above fine level. might threaten not to let him play or be on the field!
up to me, all players would be required to wear these. i think the league is gonna take the stance like "our" the players play is commemorating the event. to me thats not enough! this is a game, people's lives were and CONTINUE to be lost over this event. its the least we can do. maybe the guys from all teams will get together and say, "before all of our media/press conferences we'll mention the victims of 9-11, troops past, present and future. we appreciate you!"
just passed!!!!!!!! NFL allowing the guys to rock the red, white and blue!!!!!! i knew deep down they would have to let the guys. glad they are, just too bad it sooooo close to gameday and guys didnt ALL get a chance to order them =-(
