The NFL League officials have fought efforts to make the sport safer for the players...because, of course, that would cut into how much money team owners, etc., can make. Such a noble game! (Yes, I am mocking the NFL League leadership for having refused for so long to make the game safer for players.)

This is what you originally said. When I read that, I don't see any implications or talk about the work the NFL HAS been doing to try and limit injuries and keep the game as safe as possible.

What you said doesn't even make sense at times.. "because, of course, that would cut into how much money team owners, etc., can make. Such a noble game!" And how exactly does ignoring safety measures cost owners money? What, you think fans are gonna stop coming to the game because of less big hits? Fans are WAY more likely to stop coming to games because a player is injured and out for the season.

NOBODY, whether on this forum or anywhere, is arguing that maiming should be a part of the NFL. Players have been getting fined for YEARS for unnecessary hits.

American football riots hardly EVER happen. Being a huge NFL fan, who lives in the USA, I can assure you that American football fans are far less rowdy than soccer fans. Soccer fans are portrayed as hooligans because a lot of them are. Throwing stuff all over the field, starting racist chants (happened recently, i forget who was playing), violence in the stands, etc. These things are 100 times worse in soccer than football.
