Nfl realized their exposure is relatively small with only a minor market really caring. I’m sure they’ve orchestrated with their partners in the media to address the issue but hedge in a calculated way because they too have an interest in giving credibility to the rams’ win. In the end the only people bitching and pressing the issue will be callers into 870 or 1045 Espn.

It is what it is.

With the Pats win, the media will be more distracted by the shiny LA/Tom Brady matchup so the league is trying to just blend in. If they themselves don't bring any more attention to it, maybe it'll just fade away.

Don't be so sure. ESPN in the form of Berman/Jackson/Key were all over this in a big way. Boomer was losing his mind on CBS' halftime show and even the NFL Network "Prime" people (Deion, Shannon and LT) were dogging the refs. Plus, you had Schefter and Peter King front and center.

This isn't going away quickly.
