[quote]And even if you include all people killed by cops, it’s still a lower death rate than cops who are killed. Meaning 48 out of 700k is still a higher rate than the reverse: cops killing others.

[quote]When the XFL opens the doors to these kids the NFL will be forced to follow suit[/quote] I don’t buy this. Why does the NFL care if the kids go to college or the XFL? The only thing that could force their hand would be if players were getting paid more in the XFL than NFL, and I don’t see th...
