Ok WTF is this? Doofus Chuck Hagel is asking for information U.S. military’s relationships with the National Football League. Why now? It’s because some in the NFL have turned out to be wife beaters or child abusers. What the hell does this have to do with our military though?

News of the Pentagon review comes on the same day a senior Obama administration official decried recent domestic abuse episodes within the NFL and said the league needs to “get a handle on” the situation since so many professional athletes are considered role models to younger players.
The Pentagon is increasingly sensitive to any suggestion it is supporting a major sports organization that is perceived to tolerate domestic violence.
“The secretary wants to fully understand that relationship, in case he decides to make some changes to it,” a senior defense official told CNN.
