1 Answer

Answer :

answer:”the NFL values morality and the fact that it’s players are role models” I’m not sure that’s true. Personally, I’m more interested in doing the “right” thing than winning — but I’m not an NFL anything. Plus, being from Boston, I’m genetically modified to like the Pats — even if I’m not much of a sports fan.
