I-Arizona Daily Star - inqaku leNgcaciso yeeNdwendwe

    Ndingumlandeli omkhulu webhola ekhatywayo. Kulula kakhulu ukundifumana ngeeCawe nangoMvulo ebusuku. Kodwa i-NFL inengxaki enkulu.

    Ingxaki ayikokuba abadlali abaninzi baqhubeleka nokwenza izenzo ezimanyumnyezi zobundlobongela kwabasetyhini, okanye ukuba iligi iqhubekile nokubanika ithuba aba badlali, ngakumbi ukuba baziintandane zabalandeli (okt, ukwenza ingeniso). Ingxaki kukuba inkcubeko ngaphakathi kwiligi ayitshintshanga kakhulu nangona izijekulo zoluntu zakutsha nje ezivela kwi-NFL zibonisa ukuba bakhathalele kangakanani na ngobundlobongela obujoliswe kwabasetyhini.

    I-Case in point yiNtloko yeSixeko saseKansas uKareem Hunt owayeneziganeko ezininzi zobundlobongela ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka, kuquka ukukhaba umfazi ngoFebruwari ophelileyo. Nangona kunjalo, uHunt wajongana neziphumo ngasekupheleni kukaNovemba xa kwavela ividiyo yokuhlasela kwakhe umfazi (á la Ray Rice). Okanye i-Chief's Tyreek Hill, enye yezona nkwenkwezi ziqaqambileyo ze-NFL, owavuma ityala lokukrwitsha intombi yakhe ekhulelweyo kunye nokumbetha ebusweni nasesiswini xa wayesekholejini. Wagxothwa kwiqela lakhe lekholeji, kodwa wabhalwa kwi-NFL nangona kunjalo. Kwaye ke kukho uRuben Foster. Kwiintsuku ezintathu emva kokunqunyulwa kwi-49ers ngokubetha intombi yakhe, iWashington Redskins yamtyikitya kuluhlu lwabo.

    Andiphikisi ukuba nabani na owenze isenzo sobundlobongela makangaze avunyelwe ukuba aqeshwe ngenxa yezenzo zakhe, kodwa ndiyakholelwa ekuphenduleni. Ndiyazi kwakhona ukuba ukhuseleko lwabasetyhini ngabanye kunye nokhuseleko oludibeneyo lusengozini ngakumbi ngalo lonke ixesha ubundlobongela obenzelwa kubo buncitshiswa, bukhanyelwa, buchazwa njengetyala labo, okanye buvunyelwa ukuba lwenzeke ngaphandle kwemiphumo.

    Ngena uJason Witten. I-superstar yexesha elide kunye ne-Dallas Cowboys ngoku ngumhlalutyi we-ESPN weBhola ekhatywayo yangoMvulo. Xa ebuzwa ngexesha losasazo lwe-MNF yeveki ephelileyo malunga nengxabano ejikeleze ukutyikitywa kweRedskins kweFoster, uWitten (okhulele kwikhaya elinobundlobongela basekhaya) wathi iRedskins "isebenzise isigwebo esibi," kwaye yathetha ngesidingo sokuba abadlali baqonde ukuba “Akukho kunyamezela ukubeka izandla emfazini. Ixesha.” UBooger McFarland, umhlalutyi osecaleni kunye nentshatsheli yeSuper Bowl yamaxesha amabini uvumile. “[Ubundlobongela basekhaya] yingxaki yoluntu, kwaye ukuba i-NFL ifuna ngokwenene ukuyiphelisa kwiligi yayo, kuya kufuneka ikhangele indlela yokwenza isohlwayo sibe qatha ngakumbi.”

    Bekuhlaziya ukubona obu bunkokheli bamadoda bubiza imigangatho ephezulu kwinkcubeko yeNFL – ngokwenkcubeko yelizwe lethu – enxulumene nobundlobongela obujoliswe kwabasetyhini. Noko ke, uWitten wagxekwa ngoko nangoko waza wabizwa ngokuba ngumhanahanisi ngokusekelwe kwingxelo yakhe yasesidlangalaleni kwiminyaka eliqela eyadlulayo exhasa owayesakuba neqela lakhe owayetyholwa ngogonyamelo lwasekhaya. Kukugxeka okufanelekileyo oko, kodwa njengoko sijonge ukuba uWitten aphendule ngenxa yokungangqinelani kwakhe, siphi isikhalo sokuphendula kukaHunt, uHill noFoster? Kunokuba axhase ubuchule obutsha bukaWitten bokuthetha aze enze oko kulungileyo, wagxekwa ngokungazange alifumane ilizwi lakhe kwangethuba. Ndiyazibuza ukuba bebephi aba bagxeki ngamazwi abo malunga nalo mba.

    Sifuna abantu abaninzi ngakumbi (amadoda amaninzi) afana noWitten noMcFarland, abazimiseleyo ukuthi ubundlobongela obujoliswe kwabasetyhini akulunganga kwaye kufuneka kubekho ukuphendula. Njengoko uMcFarland watshoyo - lo ngumba woluntu, okuthetha ukuba oku akuphelelanga kwi-NFL. Oku kumalunga nePima County ngokunjalo. Lixesha lokuba uninzi lwethu lulandele isikhokelo sikaJason Witten kwaye sifumane ilizwi lethu.
