Dirty Plays In Detroit, Who Is To Blame?

Ndamukong Suh is fined $100,000.00 for a low hit. Why so much money? Suh is known for being dirty and has been fined six times already since being drafted in 2010.

Is the fine too much?

Is it just the player’s fault or the Coach as well?

Where does the league go from here with Suh and the Detroit Lions?

 

Does Schwartz Deserve Blame for Suh’s Dirty Play?In the NFL, coaches coach and players play. There will always be a fine line between what players are asked to do by coaches and what those same players actually do once they are between the white lines.

Atlanta Falcons

To Peasant…Or Not to Peasant….That is the Question

If you didn’t hear…Roddy White of the Atlanta Falcons got into a little bit of a scuffle with a twitter fan. The fan told him that getting paid to play a kids game wasn’t working when Roddy had posted a tweet saying that he was working on labor day. And what was Roddy’s response to him…..he called him a disrespectful little peasant!

HILARIOUS!!!!!

I know I should say that Roddy shouldn’t have said it…and he probably shouldn’t have…but I love it! I think it is amazing that his choice of insult back was to call him a peasant. I hope he insults other idiot fans this season by calling them Harlots, Wenches, Scallywags, Jezebels, Hooligans, Charlatans or Miscreants…… I mean it is just clever when you are using 19th century insults.

If you disagree with me than you are just a disrespectful little Rapscallion!

Roddy White Calls Twitter Troll ‘Disrespectful Peasant’The 2013 NFL season is yet to officially kick off, but Atlanta Falcons receiver Roddy White already has one Twitter folly under his belt. It’s Labor Day we working- Roddy White (@roddywhiteTV) September 2, 2013 After tweeting that he was working on Labor Day, a troll (with an egg avatar) mentioned that playing professional football is not real work.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

K Lawrence Tynes Will Hold Tampa Bay Buccaneers Accountable for MRSA Infection

Holy moly! This situations went from ugly to “possible flesh-eating staph infection” – FAST!

On Saturday, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers placed Kicker Lawrence Tynes on non-football injury reserve due to the fact that Tynes is suffering from a nasty MRSA infection and will be unable to play for some time.  The Bucs agreed to pay Tynes the entirety of this contract, as well.

As a regular gal, this sounded great.  It felt like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were admitting to being accountable for the terrible MRSA outbreak in their facilities.  But, I guess it was the exact opposite.

By not putting Tynes on the regular Injured Reserve, Tynes will be denied benefits including his salary as long as he stays on the team, an accrued season, full benefits and another season towards his pension.

In an exclusive interview with FOX Sports on Saturday, Tynes got a lot off his chest, and I have to agree with him.  He said, “If I drop a 45-pound plate on my foot while lifting weights in the weight room a the facility, it’s IR.  So I just don’t understand how my situation is any different.  I went to work, I kicked, I practiced, I cold-tubbed, I hot-tubbed, I showered for all those days there.  I come up with MRSA and it’s a non-football injury?  They’re basically trying to exonerate themselves of this and I’m not going to allow it to happen.”

So, the veteran Kicker filed a grievance against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with the backing of the NFL Players Association.  As far as I can tell, the Bucs knew about the outbreak in their facilities, they had all of the grounds fumigated, so I’m not sure how they can even attempt to not take responsibility for Tynes’ MRSA infection.  The Buccaneers Guard, Carl Nicks, also got the infection.  It seems pretty obvious to me.

Tynes fighting Bucs over MRSA messThere’s a fight coming between Lawrence Tynes and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and it’s going to make his wife Amanda’s tweets seem tame. Lawrence Tynes was informed Saturday he’ll be placed on the non-football-injury list by the Bucs, which is their way of saying he has no proof the MRSA infection that began in his foot was contracted at their facility.
