Quick backstory.

The NFL fined Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward for unnecessary roughness and Troy Polamalu came to his team mates defense saying the NFL doesn’t allow its players to be tough like in the old days.

To my surprise and enjoyment, former NFL player Mark Schlereth backed Polamalu’s statements on ESPN, and called out the NFL for capitalizing on the very thing they fine their players for. Schlereth says the NFL shouldn’t sell DVDs like “Moments Of Impact” that show players getting knocked out if they are going to punish their employees for doing so.
