The NFL signed a deal with Bose therefore outlawing and banishing the popular Beats By Dre headphones. Well the players don’t seem to care and are wearing them anyway. San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick was the first to get fined $10K and next up will probably be Cam Newton. The Panthers’ quarterback was seen doing his pregame warmups with Beats By Dre headphones over his ears and ESPN cameras rolling.
Like Kaepernick, Newton’s headphones were pink in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month but I don’t think the league cares. The reports I read explicitly bans players from wearing the headphones anywhere cameras will be filming which includes pregame warmups and up to 90 minutes post game which includes post-game interviews.

The players couldn’t care less! Apple is paying the fine because all the press over the fine is just as good as advertising. Fans hate when the NFL bans individuality so it’s actually better than a commercial
The NFL big bully
I bet if BOSE had pink headsets that were in recognition of breast cancer awareness they would buy it. but bc they arent even participating in the cause why should they even be fined. way to go apple. word of mouth is definitely on your side on this one. way to stick it to THE MAN guys. stand your ground
How can the USA call itself a democracy? Soon they will be regulating how many breathes u can take per day!!!! Smh .. Slowly but surely this so called democratic nation will become communistic nation…
