The problem with bullying is eventually non-bullying is perceived as bullying and you get undue fines and penalties.
Look at the Dre Kirkpatrick penalty. I don't know what he said, but he didn't make any physical motion to Crabtree other than the common "no sir" arm cross.
Unless he said something extremely obscene, there was no reason to call taunting on a mere verbal exchange.
The refs called that as payback for not catching the Jones thing, which should have gotten him ejected.
We also set a bad tone with Iloka stomping around after a great play.
Make the play. Leave out the child behavior. We know you made a great play Iloka, no need to waste it.
I like tough physical football.
And the bully mentality, which resulted in the Iloka play (the play not the penalty) is what we need around here. We need to let teams know you're gonna get hit and it's gonna hurt.
The taunting adds nothing to the bully mentality and only leads to stupid ass penalties.
