When did I say I hate rule changes. I hate rule changes that are horribly enforced and especially changes that do NOTHING to improve the integrity of the game. Keeping players safe is an integrity move. Creating offense friendly rules is clearly a marketing move. Enforcing TD celebrations and player conduct has nothing to do with the game itself. And by the way, I did not say that heavier equipment is a solution. I am pointing out that there are a million ideas out there to make the game safer and all Goodell has done is try to throw a bunch of fines in scattershot fashion.

Sure, "teaching" them how to tackle better. Because players always execute the way they are taught. If the league as a whole wants to curb a behavior...they penalize it. But you don't like that.

You are such a deep throater of Goodell it's scary.
In player conduct and reducing injury, Goodell's only solution has been penalizing players. Every time we need a solution, that's all Goodell's got. And none of it has worked. It's not just that the idea is stupid, it's the execution.
