In a statement late Friday expressing its heartfelt relief at the passing of what it said was 'really not a big deal after all, it turns out,' the National Football League thanked God that the issue of defensive players being paid to injure opponents was, in fact, over. 'Phew!' read the press release from the NFL, which was signed by Commissioner Roger Goodell, all 32 team presidents, and the heads of the officiating and rules committees. 'That was kind of ugly for a little bit, right? But it's all over and we can go on knowing that nothing like that will ever happen again. Not that anything happened. Who's excited for the draft?' The press release was issued as part of a series of official statements with titles such as 'Head Injuries: I Know, Right?' and 'Undetectable Performance-Enhancing DrugsWhaaaat? Shut Up!'
