We all know now that Trot & mathis lost 10K, why the Farg is d-Hall getting a farging mulligan on this? I'm sick of psuedo star treatment of prima-donna supposed marquee players. He threw punches admitted by ATL mediahttp://www.accessnorthga.com/news/ap_newfullstory.asp?ID=65027 even and we've seen the spiked helmet footage ad-nouseum.
Is Bud Selig running the NFL too? I thought the NFL was consistently better than MLB, but it's starting to close the gap in the wrong direction.
If an Eagle spiked a ATL helmet our own organization would be embarrassed and probably fine him, showing ATL has less class, Mora Jr. probably laughed than hit the smellin' salts again.
The Atlanta media didn't write that, its an AP article. And it was his teammates helmet he spiked, not an Ealges helmet.
Thats a great question. Hall should have been ejected and fined.
AP stands for Atlanta Press, dummy. ;)

I DO agree that Hall should have been ejected...and had he been, he wouldn't have been trying to farg TO up the ass all night a la Ricky Manning Jr on Pinkston in the NFCCG.

Uh hello AP article used in Atlanta paper... ::) still ATL media & did u not see him spike Trott's helmet on the ground.... ::)
yeah, it was an Eagle helmet no doubt.
it was an Eagles helmet. I remember noticing Trotter was going to have to pick up the earpiece or whatever flew off of it when it hit the ground.
The whole Deangelo Hall thing is pretty funny if you ask me. He pulls a chucklenuts move like that and gets away with it, then follows it up with a decent game where he supposedly "shut down" TO.
If these two teams meet again in the playoffs... holy crap. Combine Atlanta's overconfidence with Philly's motivation and you've got an ugly one-sided game.
Well, here's something from the Atlanta Journal-Consitution--read the last line:
Eagles complain about McNabb hit
The Eagles asked the NFL about a hit that Falcons defensive tackle Chad Lavalais put on quarterback Donovan McNabb in the first quarter, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. The Eagles say Lavalais lunged at McNabb and hit him with the top of his helmet at the same time defensive end Brady Smith tackled him on a pass attempt that was intercepted by Hall.
McNabb's chest was bruised on the play.
Signora would not say if Lavalais was facing disciplinary action, but he said parts of the game were being reviewed by director of football operations Gene Washington.
So he's reviewing more than the late hit on McNabb.

Personally, I feel this was a good loss. This was a major wake-up call for the Eagles. Now maybe they'll stop counting their money and play. If I were Reid, I'd fine Trotter too for being a fleshpop! No way he should let guys goad him into fighting. I think he is as much a "me, me" player as TO. Hall should have been ejected and I hope the league looks at the hit on McNabb because it was intentional in my view. We'll see Atlanta in the playoffs and it won't be pretty, I can tell you that.
ESPN News has been reporting this morning that the NFL is expected to fine Lavalais today for his hit on McNabb. Not that it does any good now, but at least they are admitting the mistake. However, they aren't going to admit 2 mistakes and fine/suspend Hall for his actions.

I fourth that. And even ESPN made mention that he should be fined for that...yet nothing happened.
Jeezus, people. It's Thursday, and you're still whining about the refs and who did and didn't and might and mightn't get fined. Who gives a flipping shtein? Kill the farging 49ers.
You care and the fact that you posted here confirms that. :P

I was thinking the exact same thing. >:D
Sure, I read most of the threads. I care enough to try to get the "pulse" of others on the board.
But you're all being teh queer with this. A fine on Lavalais or Hall doesn't help the Eagles whatsoever at this point. The 15-yard penalty on Lavalais, however, could have been the difference between winning and losing... but hey, this kind of shtein happens. The Eagles still had opportunities to win, and pissed them away by displaying craptastic fundamentals like farg-stick blocking and Hoying-like passing accuracy. The Falcons already reaped the karma of their instigations and dirty play with Mathis blowing out his knee a la Ki-jana Carter. Hell, it's likely Mathis will never be able to play in the NFL again.
So, let's move on. Farg the Falcons. If we meet them again this year, they'll get paid back and then some.
Move on all day if you want, it's relevant because our guy just got fined 10K yesterday. I didn't see that asshat Hall get disciplined so I'm pissed off, that is all.

you mean you dont care whos helmet got spiked???
deangelo hall should be gone for the year
A little Falcons doll, a small axe and some Hicks, TX voodoo took care of Mathis.
No Karma involved - Just Black Magic.
As we speak, rats are feasting on a Deangelo Hall doll's nads somewhere west of Texarkanna.
can't wait until the niners game so all the cheap shot/ref whining will finally stop.
farging crybabies.
Wah.

Then we can get back to doing what we do best, whining about cap space & not signing some other team's unseccessful #4 WR.

I didn't think most Philly fans enjoyed getting punked down by the refs the Falcons or the league. This team is so silent under AR cept TO. I want FO and AR to bitch about Shtein and stick-up for the players. I want pain and retribution and DHall gettin spiked on the ground, I want that smug look wiped off mora jr.s face. I think I need a smoke.... :boom
