An ad by the National Football League Players Union, which would have turned up the rhetoric the day before the Super Bowl about a possible lockout, was rejected by CBS College Sports.
An Associated Press report documents the situation. And here's the ad, which might have been a misstep by the players, so maybe the TV network saved the players from themselves ...
At the same time, kudos to the YouTube user who quickly produced this "Bad News Bears"-influenced remix of the commercial. For viewers of a certain age, it might be easier remember getting behind the Bears' case to play than it would be to support either side in the apparently impending millionaires vs. billionaires conflict coming in the NFL.
