NFL backs Reid over Angle in Nevada
Sometimes when a team is doing poorly we refer to them as "the laughing stock of the NFL". Well, the NFL itself has become a laughing stock after not only voicing its support for but donating $340,000 to Harry Reid's Senate campaign.
The NFL is a sports entity, and as such, has no business endorsing a political candidate. I would feel the same way if they had supported Reid's opponent Sharon Angle, however I would have given them credit for at least choosing the right candidate to wrongly support.
And that is where is this is doubly wrong. Not only are they not smart enough to stay out of it in the first place, the picked the worst possible candidate to support. All of which just leads more credence to the notion that the NFL is trouble from the top down. They clearly have a serious crisis of leadership. Kind of like what we have right now here in America.
