I kid, I kid. Personally, I think that a lot of the Steeler franchise is bundled up in one big group and labeled as cheap hitters. What happened at the Jets game (besides an absolute snoozer of a game) was uncalled for, and I hope they fire that trainer. This may be a rough sport, but there is absolutely no reason why a trainer should stick out his knee and trip and possibly ruin the career of a player. |

Mainly, I hate what Rothlesberger did to the football fan community. Before him, there weren't many Steeler haters. Sure, fans of the Browns, Bengals and Ravens hated Steeler fans, but that's to be expected. Now, you either love the Steelers or you hate them. And I can understand why it's easy to hate them. Rothlesberger is brain dead when it comes to social commonsense and decency. I really wish they had treated Ben the same way they treated Santonio Holmes. |

That was closer than it should have been. Quote:
I love to see WRs running down the field and blocking and playing physical games. But if the ball is in the hands of the RB 30+ yards away and he's being gang tackled, it's nauseating to see him run up and hit defenders in the back. You can keep Ben & Ward. And Harrison, the juicer. Besides them, it's a respectable team. |

Re: Sports: NFL
It's not the "illegal" part that's so scary about someone who hits away from the ball when the play's winding down far away. You say it's acceptable, but what you mean by acceptable is "legal"; there just aren't many other players in the league who do that regularly. I can't think of one, honestly.
And it would be "acceptable" to me if people weren't getting hurt, but they are, so I find it unacceptable. |

Re: Sports: NFL
I stayed up and was rewarded with one of the more improbable comebacks I've seen this year only to have to watch the replay of the final play because I got up to grab a glass of water. What a heartbreaking loss for the Texans.

Re: Sports: NFL
So, did the Ravens defense intentionally not play the entire second half, just to make a dramatic reapperance in over-time?
Of course, the same could be said of the offense, with the exception that they didn't show up in over-time. Exciting game, especially considering I thought it was a forgone conclusion with about 4 minutes left in the second quarter. From that point on it looked like Baltimore was doing whatever they could to lose that game (except for the second half opening return). But ugly or not, a win is still a win. Go Ravens!

Re: Sports: NFL
Hines Ward has consistently been voted the dirtiest player in the game BY THE PLAYERS. Consistently.
He's an @$$8013 Like battle reports? Click Tourney Reports (New 10/21/2012 - Cutters / Brutes!) KC's Maps Click KC's Customs Scaper of the Week #57 Last edited by killercactus; December 15th, 2010 at 03:40 PM. Reason: Says KC - a die hard Browns fan. |

Re: Sports: NFL
New info on the Jet aide tripping the Dolphin player: Turns out, he told several of the inactive players to form a 'wall' (it can be seen in the video on NFL.com). So, more classlessness from the Jets. Disappointing, to say the least.
Also, KC, we can't take your word on Ward being the dirtiest player in the league. That's like asking a Packer fan if the Bears are the most obnoxious fans in the league. ...well, if every player says the same thing as you do, then I guess forget it. |
