Shazier apologized to Gio today. Says he wasn't trying to hurt him.
Shazier pretty much has a clean record. I tend to think he is sincere.
And I'm sure more than a few Nazis apologized for what they did to Europe, the world, and the Jewish people.
But actions will always speak louder than words. And this is a player who not only celebrated an illegal hit (and it was illegal), but continued to celebrate for quite a while after people realized Bernard was hurt. He kept celebrating after Bernard got removed from the field. It's indicative of the team, the coaches, and the franchise that players like this are routinely praised and held with zero accountability
It was despicable.
That being said, I cannot and will not offer a defense for the utterly inappropriate way Burfict, Jones, and Marvin Lewis acted. Nor will I defend the horrible show the fans put on.
It was despicable.
There was so much wrong with the entirety of this football game. It's a black eye the Bengals sure as shit aren't recovering from anytime soon. It's a black eye the NFL will shift on to the Bengals to cover their own and the ref's asses.
It was all despicable.
Our father, who art in Hell
Unhallowed, be thy name
Cursed be thy sons and daughters
Of our nemesis who are to blame
Thy kingdom come, Nema
