Integrity28 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Goodell’s goal is simple: Take the head out of the game Sorry, too good a pun not to start a satirical thread for. WOCKA WOCKA1!!!! !1 1 Goodell’s goal is simple: Take the head out of the game Posted by Mike Florio on April 8, 2013, 1:59 PM EDT AP The effort to make football safer includes proper management of the most significant and distinctive piece of safety equipment that game uses.The helmet, which was designed to protect the human skull, has become perhaps the greatest threat to its contents in recent years. Commissioner Roger Goodell is trying to change that. Goodell’s efforts have resulted in the Neurosurgical Society of America’s “Medal For Outstanding Service,” a fitting prize for a man many current players believe has become Wreck-It Roger. But Goodell never wavers. And he won’t be wavering when it comes to efforts to make the game as safe as possible for the brains of those who play it, at every level. “We want to take the head out of the game,” Goodell said upon receiving the award, via NFL spokesman Greg Aiello’s Twitter page. “The helmet is for protection. It is not a weapon.” It has been a weapon for decades, and Goodell has been struggling to change a culture that all football players willingness accept, despite the risks. His objective suggests that more rule changes are coming. Indeed, to truly take the head out of the game, John Madden’s suggested abandonment of the three-point stance becomes inevitable. That’s the kind of change that would fundamentally alter the game and, more importantly, the way it looks when piped through our HDTVs. As a result, it’s a long shot that the three-point stance will ever go the way of the flying wedge. Still, look for Goodell to push for any and all rules changes that can make the game incrementally safer without making it look any different to the ever-growing throng of football fans, both zealous and casual.

Integrity28 Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 Congrats. You've somehow made a Blackout thread look like pulitzer material. This thread fails on multiple levels. I happen to take great pleasure in being a master of bad puns. This is the reaction I go for, this and people rolling their eyes, or exclaim, "aye yay yay" and shaking their head in disapproval... while I chortle to myself. So, in essence... this reaction, proves my thread has met it's only success metric. Now, GFY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the reaction I go for, this and people rolling their eyes, or exclaim, "aye yay yay" and shaking their head in disapproval.. Not to change the subject, but I've always wondered.. did roman sailors say 'aye aye captain', or just '2 captain'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Robbins Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Somebody give this man a post of the week. I log on to JetNation, and what do I see as a thread title? Goodell and... AyanDJANGO? WHAT? THAT'S not his real name! That's pretty f**king funny! So I say to myself, alright, but it can't possibly get any better than this. Wrong! As I click the thread and begin to read the post, like a pickpocket in the night, the meaing of the title slowly creeps up on me. Head. It's like your head, on your shoulders, but also it's like penis. It all comes together in a moment of clarity and sheer ecstasy as a smile broadens across my face. And just when I think the fun is about to be over, I see a fresh Fozzie reference that puts me in stitches! Thank you for the laughs, have a wonderful night! P.S. I really enjoyed your PUNchline!
