What? No outrage over this?
The funny thing about this comment is the NF did once try to regulate what kinds of socks players were allowed to wear. They used to say that you could not have more than one manufacture's logo on the socks. So at the time if you wore some Nike socks with a logo on both sides of the socks, the socks had to be taken off or turned inside out (which you could still see the back part of the logo). The NF then got rid of the rule and said in so many words, "Socks are not a part of the uniform that schools supply anymore, so we cannot enforce a rule properly with a piece of equipment that each person purchases on their own." Or something like that was said. Now we have a rule that is based on something that is not normally influenced directly by teams or schools like socks to regulate. I just do not understand why this is a priority but socks are not?

Peace
