The 'Hybrid' word kind of bothers me. The whole idea seems rather contrived, like a bad hybrid. Did AI have anything to do with this? Maybe so as the owners voted 29-3 in favor. Roger Goodell says if it doesn't work like they hoped, they can "tinker" with it.
Or maybe they could compromise.
Football players will be allowed but controlled. Don Corleone will provide protection against fisticuffs...and audible belches and farts. And there will be the peace.
and Tommy Lasorda are gone, all bets are off.
