Dear NFL
Please take REAL ACTION on Domestic Violence! 
Signed, NFL Fans & Families
How many murdered girlfriends and suicides will it take for the NFL to admit that there is a Domestic Violence epidemic begining in its ranks? How many beaten women must go unnoticed? Gretchen Tomei gives us a way to make a change through her tireless efforts of petitioning the NFL to get the players to wear Purple in addition to the Pink in honor and recognition that "Domestic Violence", must also be eradicated.  Our lone male guest, Ty, The Quaterback of G'Town Radio's own "Sports Talk", added his whole nine yards, and we developed a working theory as to where the changes must be begin.  This is a conversation you don't want to miss!
 
This petition http://www.change.org/nfldv  on change.org has over 23,000 signatures & many domestic violence organizations have endorsed the campaign.  Amongst other things, the petition requests:
 The league do more when it comes to domestic violence by: 

Reviewing its conduct policy to include the ability to require players convicted of charges related to domestic violence to participate in abuser intervention services.
 Place a link to the National Domestic Violence Hotline included on the Lifeline website. (www.thehotline.org).
