I see the NFL is trying to ban the common hip drop tackle. If that happens they might as well start wearing flags.

"the liberties of the American people were dependent upon the ballot-box, the jury-box, and the cartridge-box; that without these no class of people could live and flourish in this country..."
OK
which flags???
They need to ban the WWE wrestling style suplex tackle first.
Just what is this hip block tackle?
Flag will much more inclusive!
If professionals who's careers depend on catching fish use FFS then that's what I'm using. Might be too simple of a philosophy but makes sense to me.

I love the NFL, but they want me to hate them more and more each year.
I remember playing flag football with some post graduate football players at Military School. I lost two front teeth trying to block them.
If they penalize the hip drop tackle, almost every pitch to a running back and run outside the Tackles is either going for 8 yards, or will be getting 15 yards for a penalty.
There will be no tackles made in the backfield that are not penalized, on those plays.
IF I am a player and the choice is between me or my teammates getting injured or making the tackle a penalty. I know which way I would vote, I ain't no fool. I'm keeping my brothers bodies in one piece as much as possible. As a fan I don't like it, but screw me, my opinion should not matter it isn't my future health on the line.
I can’t care to know the sexual orientation of the football players.
Hang on. I'll help you in 77 minutes.

They've banned this tackle in rugby as well, just due to the inherent danger of snapping something on the leg of the guy being tackled...they'll figure out how to tackle properly again.
Oh crap. My bad. That seems more reasonable.
