“Our members do not want to see the rules of play altered to such a degree that the sports themselves become unrecognizable from their traditional origins. No one wants to see the NFL turn into a flag football league. SFC believes, however, that just as football leagues at all levels altered helmets to include facemasks, then created a new rule that no player shall “twist, turn or pull the facemask of an opponent in any direction” (NFL Rulebook at Rule 12, Sec. 2, Art. 5), leagues can and should develop practices that reasonably protect players. At the very least, we should have full disclosure of leagues’ knowledge on issues of player safety.”
