November 26, 201114 yr I think Suh will get 3 games and I think that's about right. Doesn't matter much for the Lions because they aren't making the playoffs this year anyway. I haven't seen all of Suh's personal fouls, so I can't comment on how he's played prior to yesterday. But, the bottom line for me is that what he did was unacceptable, and is unacceptable. I don't care if a player has a history or not, I think an act like that should result in a multiple game suspension. Period. No matter the offender. So...was it unacceptable?
November 26, 201114 yr What? We should just drop it? Nope! I want to see 2 more pages of y'all repeating yourself
November 26, 201114 yr http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/7278879/ndamukong-suh-detroit-lions-apologizes-stomp-says-learned-situation Ndamukong Suh apologizes for stomp "In the past few hours, I have had time to reflect on yesterday's game and I want to sincerely apologize for letting my teammates down, the organization, and especially to my fans who look to me for positive inspiration," Suh said in his statement. "Playing professional sports is not a game. It is a profession with great responsibility, and where performance on and off the field should never be compromised. It requires a calm and determined demeanor, which cannot be derailed by the game, referee calls, fans or other players. "I want to reiterate my commitment to working to become a better player, and professional -- on and off the field. My reaction on Thursday was unacceptable. I made a mistake, and have learned from it. I hope to direct the focus back to the task at hand -- by winning." He should have said this yesterday, IMO.
November 26, 201114 yr Again, how many prior incidents did Haynesworth have leading up to that offence? He left the man with 30 stitches in his face and continued headaches and blurred vision after the incident. Roger gave him 5 games for this. I do not think late hits on the QB compare. Again, JMO.
November 26, 201114 yr What do you hear more about? What's getting more play? I have seen the ESPN pieces on his giving as well. Of course this is getting more play right now. I get that. To say that endowing a scholarship and helping out high school students does not say more about his character than that stomp in the heat of the moment in an NFL game- again, we will agree to disagree.
November 26, 201114 yr How many times do I have to type 1 or 2 games isn't enough? The fact is this isn't his first offense, or second or third... Getting the picture? If your issue is the number of games, okay- we agree to disagree, then. The precedent has been set for this action with Haynesworth, IMO.
November 26, 201114 yr What? We should just drop it? Ummm, yeah we should. The tone is taking a turn that is not one of friendly discourse. You can have the last words- I'm done.
November 26, 201114 yr Nope! I want to see 2 more pages of y'all repeating yourself So does he need 2 or 5 games suspension? Maybe we should start a poll?

Sounds like momma got a hold of him after seeing his press conference. :lol: :lol: :lol:

November 26, 201114 yr Author He left the man with 30 stitches in his face and continued headaches and blurred vision after the incident. Roger gave him 5 games for this. I do not think late hits on the QB compare. Again, JMO.You're evading the question. I don't think late hits compare either, that's not what we've been talking about.
