I used to love Burfict, admired his fire, passion, and hard nosed style of a bygone era.  Even up through, and including the stuff in the 2015 Playoff meltdown game.  I just chalked it up to playing wrecklessly, caught up in the emotion of the moment.  But then, it started becoming evident to me that perhaps that was not the case, and some of his cheap stuff was indeed calculated decisions.  As any player with their senses about them would have cleaned up their play, for the sake of their health and their career.  

I guess after Mike Zimmer wasn't around to keep his attention focused on playing dead ahead, his mind sorta wandered into his own devices.
