More details to this question:
I would like to have my characters talk about and express their opinions about NFL and other sports teams. I would also like to be able to review movies and talk about other things in entertainment. Can I do this without written consent? I understand the freedom of speech but I would like to know if this is something I need to worry about? Thank you.

Yes, you can have people discuss issues but you need to make sure that you do not use more of these entities' trademarks than necessary to make your point. There is also an issue of fair use, but make sure that you consider the legal issues to find fair use because if your are wrong, you can be liable. You should show your work to someone knowledgeable in these fields to determine if you are okay.
