A scheme that was developed by the city of Phoenix allowing the National Football League to censor messages on signs in the city during the Super Bowl has been struck down.
quote:

sued the city because its new rule "barred residents from placing signs on their own property without first getting approval from the NFL and the Host Committee
quote:

the judge found that the "Super Bowl Censorship Ordinance" violated the free speech rights of citizens. It also "unconstitutionally delegated power to the National Football League (NFL) and Super Bowl Host Committee,"

I can't even begin to comprehend the weakness of character it takes to watch and support these people.

The only reason I have thought about watching is because of a rumored Blockbuster is back commercial.

I will probably just check in on surprise commercials, tomorrow.

They don’t care. It’s all about image. I had a very very negative embarrassing Goodell sign and was walking around the football experience near the riverfront when we hosted the super bowl after the no call season. The head security guy was sending NOPD to threaten and arrest me. I was in a public street on the sidewalk.

He said he didn’t care and was gonna arrest me for disturbing the peace or some other bs. I had my friend start videoing the whole incident and told him I was gonna sue the shite out of them and the nfl for civil rights violations preventing free speech.

He kinda backed off but just started shadowing me on the sidewalk trying to pull my sign down when I walked.

Yep, the NFL did the same things with signs in The French Quarter & anywhere along normal traffic corridors. No one in official N.O. complained. ( review which party ran the City back then & now ). Goodell was / is still hated at the time & there were many negative signs everywhere that were taken down.

Someone should send Goodell a couple million “Hurt Feelings” reports.

The NFL runs everything with the Super Bowl not cities. And, oh by the way it is not even in Phoenix, its in Glendale.

The NFL is such a trash organization.
