So, it seems the NFL doesn't much like the idea that Charles Woodson has his own wine.
According to their statement, Woodson's interview about his winery and its products could be seen as an endorsement of alcohol and have a "detrimental effect" on young NFL fans. Um, waitaminute. This is the National Football League, which has an official beer (Coors) and which has more beer commercials per game than offensive linemen have broken fingers.
Yup, nothing tarnishes a pro sports league's image like someone who decides to open a winery that will produce a high-end boutique wine and try to compete with some of the field's top producers. Much better to have some guy who's an obvious longtime beer customer dance around in the stands with two product-placed cans attached to his hat.
You stay classy, NFL.
