IS THE NFL VICARIOUSLY LIABLE FOR THE ACTS OF ITS PLAYERS?

This episode will examine how the NFL has handled the recent allegations of domestic violence and child abuse.  We will discuss whether the role of the NFL and its players union should include disciplinary actions against players for acts committed in their personal lives.  We will also examine whether disciplinary action has been or is fair and impartial and what role does race play, if at all, in addressing off the field acts committed by players.  Finally, this episode will examine whether the NFL has been inclusive or exclusive in handling issues like drugs, domestic violence, and race and off the field acts committed by its players.
