kegstand Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 regardless this dude should sit the rest of the season without pay IMO!! Classless move and uncalled for. I would say the same about anyone in the NFL even from the Bears that's just stupid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YOOOOOO Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 How ridiculous. He made a really stupid mistake and he should be punished for it. but banned for life. Thank goodness you are not the commish ... most people in their life have had times when they say or do things in the spur of the moment that was dumb. He had one of those times - he did a dumb thing but it was not planned a week in advance or anything. It was a spur of the moment stupid thing to do that should have warranted a year suspension (in my opinion) 793324[/snapback] BANNED FOR LIFE!!! THe dude looked down saw an OLINEMEN, that probably was owning him all day, with no helmet on and decided "GEEEEEEE, were getting owned today, let me step on this dude's head with my metal spikes, yea that will make me feel better" !@#$ him... BAN the fool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Wheels Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 The new commissioner had the chance to make a strong statement on Haynesworth's behavior and didn't. Goodell wiffed on this call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time someone punches someone there is a chance that it could cause brain damage or eye damage or nose broken. Does that mean that everyone who punches someone should be banned from working in their respective jobs for life? If so 4/5th of the country would be out of jobs.

IndyMark Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Ripping the dudes helmet off was one thing, but come on stepping on the guys head. He's lucky he didn't get suspended for the season. 793223[/snapback] Agreed. He got lucky he did not get suspended the rest of the season. 5 games w/o pay is way too light. 8 games minimum - the rest of the season would have been better. Remember, it took over 30 stitches to close the wound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNBillFan Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 The suspension is the longest for on-field behavior in NFL history. It was well deserved and fair and more legal issues may be added on top of the league decision. No matter what else comes of this, this should be his last chance. It has been reported that Haynesworth had a history of violent behavior while at UT and has had confrontations with his own teammates in Nashville. As a UT sophomore he had a fight with an offensive lineman at practice where, after being sent off the field to the locker room, he tried to return to the field and confront his teammate armed with a long pole. He was stopped by Phil Fulmer and received a suspension. It has also been reported that he has been involved in another kicking attack on a former Titans teammate in practice and, more recently, he was involved in a road rage incident in which charges where eventually dismissed. I think, while he has apologized, been self-critical and has accepted the suspension without any dispute, this guy "has issues" and he needs to get them under control. At 6'6" and 320 lbs. he is a danger to others with that temper and lack of self control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDyl7993 Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 The NFL players association will never let the Dallas play file criminal charges..... 793231[/snapback] Why is everyone surprised? This is the league where refs usually look the other way if they can, depending on the team. I am just happy that it was acknowledged. Course, couldn't hide this one. I wish bad calls from cheatin refs wouuld incur the same type of punishment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
