he got a 15 yard penalty, but he should've been ejected on top of that
I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood.

Huh. I was predicting a $75,000 fine.

Had Trotter punched the ref before the Falcons game, would he have been able to play?

that's rediculous!

Barber got off awful easy for this, as it was clear he would when the ref didn't throw him out of the game.  It's nice to be one of the anointed ones, eh Ronde?

That was BS. A couple of Ravens were ejected for no less than that. When I saw it I didn't feel there was any way he couldn't be ejected, but I guess when you've got that "good guy" reputation it helps, huh?

Ronde and his butter- finger twin Tiki amount to teacher's pets on the NFL campus.  I hate teacher's pets.  Almost as much as I hate Christians.  Stupid Christians.

Don't forget about Christians who also happen to be teacher's pets.  They're the annoyingest. 

QuoteBarber, who was swinging at Jets center Kevin Mawae but missed and hit Hannah, likely will appeal the fine.

This is the part that really pisses me off though.  He could have gotten a lot worse (ejection/suspension) but he didn't.  I understand that it was an accident and he wasn't swinging at the reft but it still doesn't change the fact that he took a swing at someone during a game.  He was wrong and needs to just accept the consequences.

Barber's defense is identical to the car thief who didn't mean to kidnap the baby in the back seat:  "I'm not a kidnapper, I didn't mean to take the kid, it was on accident. I'm just a car thief."

It's preposterous!

That Trotter thing happened over a month ago. One incident has nothing to do with the other. Let it go.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?
