Sock Sermon Vol. 2

#FREETHESOXARTISTS
#LETTHEMINTHENFL

All rules and laws are great when they start. Yet, it is always a good idea to look over them every now and again and revise. For example the dumbest rule in the NFL Handbook:
“The stockings worn by players must be white from the top of the shoe to mid-calf and an approved team color from mid-calf to the bottom of the pant leg, which is pulled down below the knee.”
Welcome to one of the main rules in the NFL that sets the clock back to the 1960’s

I get it I get it....The NFL must do everything to protect the sanctity of the All Powerful Shield, but must we punish the Sox, really? I know conservative fans of the NFL will throw the argument that no person or fashion pieces should take away from the game, but does it really?  Socks should be treated no different than gloves. Gloves cover fingers and can be made crazy as the player or company can design it. Hey NFL, let’s add a new market to the NFL website, another area of accessories, NFL....you can charge an arm and a leg for....The Sox! 
I know the NFL can not allow any and every crazy sock to be worn, but allow the players the chance to design a sock they can wear once or twice a season for charity. This way the conservatives do not have to go cold turkey on giving up the bland white sock. Ease the sock game into the game and welcome the upcoming designers such as The Sox Stop into the almighty emperor we call the NFL.  Free The Sox Game! Remove the 1960 Sock Rule!
