Earl Thomas to NFL: 'Allow us to express our creativity without fining us'

Seattle Seahawks safety Earl Thomas thinks the NFL could learn a thing or two from the way the NBA treats its players.

Thomas took to Twitter on Sunday night - presumably after watching the NBA's All-Star Game - to criticize the NFL for not allowing its players to express themselves.

This year's NBA All-Star festivities boasted arguably the best dunk contest of all time, while the 2016 NFL Pro Bowl drew what was likely its lowest rating ever. Commissioner Roger Goodell wasn't impressed with the quality of the NFL's all-star game either, admitting the league may have to consider changing the format.
