The league, and all of its after the fact transparency,
only makes it worse. Their only TD wasn't. NOW it's illegal for opposing "coaches" (a real thinking man's player Joey Porter was) to mingle in the defensive huddle. In a league that has banned headshots, the hit to Gio was ok because he had his left leg planted, and his hips were a certain way or whatever... That's not enough. Let's change that rule after the fact... While we're at it, let's suspend Vontaze Burfict for three games for "repeated" safety violations.
It is what it is. I have real problems, and I don't lose sleep over football games.... It's all just so weak.
If that happened to a media darling (ex: Steelers!) there would have been a million discussions about it. "They" would still be talking about it. Heck they still are talking about it but we are still the bad guys. After ALL that came out after that game our former QB along with many others still see us as the bad guys. It's just incredible how they all choose ignore the facts.
I almost gave up on the NFL..stacked deck and all. If I see more of the same this year I probably will. I have a nice HS stadium right up the road.
