I expected a little ugliness because that's how the AFCN does it. Fights, personal fouls, big hits, etc. It is how we play.
I expected blown ref calls because that's what they do nowadays.
I did not expect:
- An injured player being booed and having cans thrown at him.
- A coach pulling a player's hair.
- A star player for each team being concussed by deliberate head shots.
- Another coach running on the field and smack-talking opposing players.
- Players taking the ball and running off the playing field before the end of the game.
The score says the Steelers won. But the NFL lost this, IMO. Both teams were at fault.
I agree with everything in this post. Nice job of laying it out so well.
