They make billions every year. Calling them Non-Profit is nothing but a damn tax dodge. End corporate welfare for the National Football League. It is nothing more than a bunch of rich white guys sitting around collecting a huge tax break at the expense of the honest hardworking tax-paying citizens of this nation, End Corporate Welfare for the National Football League! End it NOW!
 
Preach it!
Love me some NFL,
Hate me some for profit commercials every 4 nano seconds
Unfortunately NFL is more true religion than Christianity

lol....auditing a non-profit is one of the simplest things in the world......expenditures simply have to equal receipts......do you somehow think that they're pocketing vast amounts of cash that aren't being taxed?......
 
The temp for the 49er/Packers game will be around zero.

Relevance? There is none! Do people who work in subfreezing temperatures usually pay taxes? Yes they do? The people who make sure you have electricity in snow storms are all tax-payers! The men who are going to be out on the field today are tax-payers but the league and the owners aren't! Why is that?

The Packers are a socialist organization! Do you know the team is owned by the fans, and it is the only team in the league that is! If all teams were owned by the fans I might feel differently, but unfortunately they are generally owned by rich white guys who are making billions off of this commercial enterprise year after year after year and pay no taxes because the whole shebang is considered Non-profit and has non-profit status, which means some of the tax dollars that they should be paying are being paid by poor ignorant wish they were rich people like Hypocrazy! But he is actually brainwashed enough to fight for their right to be tax free so that he has to pay more. That is how fucked up he is. He is organizing a poor people's campaign in support of lower taxes for rich people because the people who own 60 percent of the nation's wealth shouldn't be paying 60 percent of the nation's taxes; that just isn't fair!
 
The teams are not tax exempt, just the league office. The real issue is whether the NFL actually promotes the industry or just the interests of the teams. The tax exemption is not nearly as costly as the subsidies.
 
Tell the IRS: Revoke the NFL’s tax-exempt status

You should really clarify your post so as to not make yourself look intellectually bankrupt. The NFL is a non profit. Each NFL team is a for profit entity and they do pay taxes. In fact they can get kind of screwed because they often have to pay state income taxes in the state they played their game each week. Yeah, I know, you won't cry for those poor athletes.

Now as for the Not For Profit status of the NFL, I actually do agree they should not have it. But, I think there should be ZERO not for profits. Not for profit in and of itself is a big scam and not just with the NFL. I would take you more seriously if you cared about the principle and not just finger pointing at the NFL.

As a total aside, what is amazing to me is that Goodell is too fucking stupid to see that the left has set its sights on tearing down football.
