Happy Super Bowl Rape Fest.

People will say Snow!

It is not the NFL's fault this is happening!
No it is NOT!
But... Have they spoken out against it?
Will there be one advertising campaign today about it?
Are they helping with their billions of dollars to stop this?
NO they are not.

Facts: "In 2010, the average cost of a 30-second commercial was (according to CBS, the network that televised Super Bowl XLIV that year) approximately US $3.01 million. This excludes costs and fees for actors, equipment, ad agencies, directors, crew and other personnel."

30 seconds of commercial time! 3.01 million dollars. Of course the networks are profiting, but so is the NFL. How many commercials will be played?

For me, if they (NFL) and the TV affiliated had spoken out - I would be feeling a wee bit better about the game. At least they are speaking out. But then again - How can I be disgusted with them, when our own community does or says nothing. Except - GO PACKERS GO!

The only NFL player (I can find) who has spoken out against this - Is Jay Ratliff of Dallas Cowboys. It's on vimeo - So, I cannot embed.
