NFL Breaks Down New Rules

The rule changes (forceout rule eliminated, no more 5-yard facemasks, defensive player can have helmet intercom, reviewable field goals, et al) were adopted in April at the NFL's annual meetings in Palm Beach, Fla.

My favorite point of emphasis? The NFL has asked officials to crack down on are violations of "mutual respect." This includes taunting, gestures, choreographed celebrations and general on-field goonery.

"If you just monitor the game with the demonstrations, physical activity and showmanship, I didn't see as much of that when I first got in the league," said umpire Butch Hannah, a 10-year veteran. "That has carried to a level where the league decided it had to do something about it."

What I found hilarious about them breaking down these rules was that they went directly to Foxboro and broke them down to the Patriots.

Too bad Belichick was busy planning new cheating schemes in his mind and ignoring them while they were breaking it down.

It wouldn't matter because Goddell would just look the other way like he saw nothing.
