Adam "don't call me Pacman" Jones could have, and should have lit Amari up on one of the next few plays. That's that.

The logic that we should blindly defend a guy because he plays on our team is borderline stupid. I don't even know where you're going with that. If my sister commits a crime, I'm not going to pretend it didn't happen just because she's my sister. Cooper illegally stiff armed Jones and then our guy retaliated in a way that we don't feel that he should have.

If a Steelers player does the same thing to one of our guys, you're just going to cry that it's dirty. Your argument is that we should just defend our Bengals players whether they're right or wrong, and that's dumb. I'm going to defend whoever I feel isn't in the wrong in a given situation, I'm intelligent enough to be able to separate what jersey people are wearing for the sake of forming a logical opinion.

I guess the logic is we are fans which means we are fanatic over our team, which means we let some things ride maybe we shouldn't. Again if a Steeler player beat up Adam for punching them in the throat repeatedly. I wouldn't whine about it. Guys keep saying that to me but truth is I wouldn't. That's the truth (I never complained about the Steelers knocking out our players. Just that we never "legally" knocked out any of theirs in return. You see when we finally took out one of their own in Bell, they turned right around and took out Green). Like I keep saying I don't care who it is, don't start none wont be none! I may be wrong for that belief but I'm sticking to it. I didn't like the penalty or bad coverage overshadowing his big game, but I'm not going to slam him for it.
