The NFL has rescinded Mike Munchak's already slap-on-the-wrist fine of 10k for pulling Reggie Nelson's hair in the postseason. An NFL coach can now pull a player's hair on national television and get away with it without a single bit of reprimand.

I'm a mixture of angry, disgusted, and complete lack of surprise. Normally the NFL tries to be at least a LITTLE less blatant with their favoritism when it comes to dealing with the Steelers, but apparently they have just said "f it" and gone all in. I guess he needs them having his back as he takes on both the Patriots and the Chiefs in court.

not surprised it's the steelers so let's see then vontaze, is the only one without a reduced punishment.the first link says allegedly what the hell. I guess Marvin needs to hire someone to be watching when a opposing team is close step on field act like they're looking at Jumbotron or stick his foot and trip runner. seems it's all good now
Thanks ExtraRadiohead for the great sig

If this wasn't evidence enough of the NFL's pro Steeler agenda. Don't be shocked to see Martavis Bryant's suspension reduced significantly either. They want to paint us as the villains in this rivalry.

The only way to get past the Steelers, the NFL, and the refs is to beat them by so many points they can't take it away from us in the future. And hopefully our new assistant coaches will get through to the players on ignoring the B.S. It's not going to be fair when it comes to the Steelers. NFL will always give them the edge.

The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.

"Nobody" in the Bengals Organization has the spine to call the league out on it so what do you expect. You've got to think (sorry Fred) that behind the scenes someone spoke up for and was fighting for Munchak, someone other than the Coach.

WOW wtf NFL.
I think we can get to the playoffs if we play 15 games.
I really think we should boycott the England game. Dont let on that we are doing it. But when the time comes blitz the media with the fact we are not happy with Burficts suspension and we are sick of the double standard.
Its funny Chris Henry was an NFL villian. Martavis Bryant is just like him but is a golden boy. With talk should the NFL reconsider their stance on marijuana now that the commish has a player from his favorite team suspended because he cant quit blazing it up.

I'm sending Goodell a pair of mittens with a note asking him to pass them along to Munchak before our next game.

Maybe Munchak has pica, and it just flared up real bad when he saw Nelson's glorious locks? Lol
Might want to include a muzzle with the mittens just in case.
...or maybe it's just blatant favoritism for the owner who gave Goodell the job. F the Steelers.

I agree the Steelers get away with much more than most teams. We just need to beat them this year both times and shut them up.
Who Dey!
