PHOENIX – Media Day should be a blast today. It will be held at the US Airways Center, home of the Phoenix Suns.
But at last season's Super Bowl it became clear that a lot of people in the new age media are not familiar with some of the NFL's rules and regulations about media access.
The publicity clause in all NFL player contracts state: "Player will cooperate with news media, and will participate upon request in reasonable activities to promote the Club and the League."
Media Day at the Super Bowl certainly qualifies as a reasonable activity to promote the Club and League.
Failure to do so may result in a fine by the league under its media relations policy, which states in section 22 that: "VIOLATIONS – Violations of the above procedures will be considered conduct detrimental to the league and will be subject to disciplinary action by the commissioner."
