True. And I disagree with the NFL bowing down to public outrage, but a normal company isn't dealing with a a set of employees in which a large majority has criminal records and/or are on probation.

Their board meetings aren't broadcast to millions of people every Sunday as a matter of course either though. Thereby inviting a personal vested interest in the minute by minute lives of the parties involved.

If they put it on ESPN's website every time and IBM or Apple employee got a DUI or was arrested, the companies' policies would change.

If public outrage even looks like it will affect the net, you better believe change is going to happen. It's true everywhere, even in sports.
