Some breaking sports news tonight: Adrian Peterson of the Minnesota Vikings will not play on Sunday. A jury has indicted him on child abuse charges. Not a lot of details, but it’s related to using a switch on his child. It caps off a week where reactions from the NFL, and individual teams, are under heavy public scrutiny. And some wonder what the real motives are.
The NFL is trying to project the image that it cares, especially about women. In fact, in just a couple of weeks, you’re going to see the NFL putting on a massive presentation that does bring awareness to a very good cause. October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and teams across the board will be putting on pink, wearing ribbons, and doing outreach, all as part of a push to be more inclusive towards women. It’s a good image, but not much more than dressing.
So what do you think: does the NFL care about women?
