•    Cameron Heyward Cuts Deal With NFL Over Eye Black Cancer Tribute Heyward said he plans to honor his late father "in other ways."     
•        Pittsburgh Steelers defensive end Cameron Heyward announced on Twitter Tuesday night that he would no longer be wearing the eye black with the tribute message "Iron Head" during games after cutting a deal with the NFL. Heyward had been honoring his late father Craig "Ironhead" Heyward, who played in the NFL for 11 seasons. He died following a battle with bone cancer in 2006.
  The defensive end first donned the eye black during the Steelers' Week 5 game against the San Diego Chargers, and again during their Week 6 game against the Arizona Cardinals. For his desire to honor his father, Heyward was fined $5,787 for the first uniform violation and was facing a $11,576 fine for his second "offense."
  To mitigate the public backlash the NFL has received for punishing him, Heyward met with league officials on Tuesday. To close the controversy, Heyward and the league agreed that the second fine would be significantly reduced as long as Heyward stopped putting "Iron Head" on his eye black, according to ESPN.

Goodell needs to kill himself over this stuff.

I dunno, I get where they're coming from. They can't allow some eyeblack messages and not others.

I see what the NFL is trying to do.  It's not so much what this guy is doing, more so what it leads to others doing down the road.

Next thing you know, players are putting all kinds of excrement all over themselves and their uniform.

Goodell needs to kill himself over this stuff.

While I don't do the "kill yourself" thing, I think Goodell is out of his mind at this point. "We'll let you wear pink gloves and shoes to show we love titties, but you can't honor your father's fight with cancer because reasons."

There shouldn't be any rule about eyeblack messages.

So they should be allowed to write freak and queynte on their eyeblack if they wish?

I'm sure a separate rule could govern that sort of thing without being eyeblack specific. Most players just want to rep their home area code.

[Johnny English]

OK. Where's the line? We've established that religious messages are not acceptable, and that family messages are. What about PRAY 4DAD?

The point is, it's much easier just to say no to all of it than it is to negotiate each one separately.

[Badger]

I mostly don't give a excrement.

[bojanglesman]

Why can't he just wear a shirt under his pads that says Iron Head?  Why does everyone else have to see it? 
I have on a thong supporting derriere cancer right now.  Enjoy the thought.
