[QUOTE="AmishMafia, post: 438771, member: 2846"] I see a huge difference with Spygate. First I thought Belicheck should have been suspended, and I'm still pissed that he wasn't. But this is something entirely different. It is my understanding that teams were warned not to do this several times in the last few years. It probably did happen back in the day, but that doesn't make it right today. Trying to hit someone hard and intimidate is different than trying to hit them in such a way as to cause injury. A LB flying in at a QB can try to swat that ball from his hand, but hey, aiming for the elbow there is a good chance he can do some ligament damage and make a cool $10k. Is that what we want for the NFL? A *** for tat effort to put players in the hospital? If Rodgers had a career ending injury from a Saint player 2 years ago and we found out the player got a slap on the back and $20k bonus, how would we feel then? Was it a part of the game for the DE to hit the Rodgers in the front of the knee, acting like he was pushed into him. But in reality he wanted to injure Rodgers permanently because his coach told him too and his MLB teammate will give him some cash. [/QUOTE]
