EP-42 NFL Players Wearing Patriotic 9/11 Cleats

The NFL is in a pickle. To honor 9/11 and the people affected by the tragedy several NFL players wore patriotic 9/11 cleats. The NFL has threatened to fine players who paid their respects with this public display.
Considering the NFL honored 9/11 victims with a pre-game ceremony and commemorative stickers for helmets, aren’t they being hypocritical?

Brian Cristiano and Rob Cressy dish about the difficult position the NFL is in regarding how they police uniform violations (especially ones that support a good cause). The NFL has a huge platform where they could do a lot of good. However, that doesn't mean that any player can use his cleats as an opportunity to bring awareness for a cause, apparently.

At the end of the show Brian and Rob give actionable advice on what you can implement into your business from the way the NFL is handling the 9/11 patriotic cleats drama.
