Part 2/8:
The notion of fairness in the NFL was bluntly rebuffed by a commentator who stated, "this is not the national fairness league." This sentiment underscored the hard realities that players and coaching staff face in a competitive and high-stakes environment where decisions are frequently based on performance rather than a sense of equity. The commentator pointed out that expressing grievances over fairness is futile and that the inherent nature of the league does not support such notions.
