Count the days of the “Brotherly Shove,” because the NFL is already planting the seeds to ban it, citing made-up injury data:

Everyone only wants to show the negative side of the “Brotherly Shove.” It’s like cigarettes. Are they good for you? No. Do you still want one after a couple beers? Absolutely. But I wonder what anti-Shove people would say if they saw the joy it brought people. Good thing we have the Internet. Take this guy for example. The Brotherly Shove cured his clear neck injury. You can see by the brace he probably hasn’t walked in days, but he sees the Eagles lining up in formation and it inspires him to get on all fours and bark like a dog while his favorite team is imposing its will on a weaker opponent:

That’s a medical miracle right there.

I just want to implore the NFL to think of the people on the other side of the coin. Actions have consequences:

With the world the way it is currently, we need joy and love now more than ever.

Peace, Love, & Brotherly Shove.
