Harrison was subject to the rule changes that were made to eliminate a style of play that he partook in very often. It was by no means a "Harrison only" rule. As much as I disagree with the pussification of the NFL, they handed out fines and vaginal leak penalties relatively equally liberally across the league, many times non-deservingly (see: Suh).

Harrison and the rest of the league had ample warning to alter their style of play to be more like powder puff girls. Some adjusted quicker than others. Harrison magnified the spotlight on himself with his semi-defiant remarks, as did Suh.

Again, I hate the pussification of the league, but by no means was Harrison unfailry or unequally treated by the league. The hurt was spread across all teams (except for Goodell's pretty boys and money makers [see: Pats, etc....]). It was one of those rules that the Steelers (Bad Boys) and the Lions (Angry Losers) only hurt themselves with because of their images. Hopefully next year will be a little bit more sane.

J.E.T.S...........Jets,Jets,Jets!

335iMIAMI · 01-10-2011, 09:30 PM

Good luck against the patriots

Bmrmeup · 01-10-2011, 09:37 PM

It's gonna be a rough one for my team against Brady but "Ya GOTTA Believe! We have no choice now....

R33K128i · 01-10-2011, 10:26 PM

Tom brady is on fire and the only person that can beat him is HIM! GO PATS BABY!

SpmnE9zero · 01-11-2011, 06:32 AM

Tom Brady is on fire!!!!

When your on top the only place to go is down, or stay up, but to stay up, you need to be wise as someone trying to knock you down has everything to gain and nothing to lose!

I dont see the Jets doing it, they are too inconsistent, and lets face it.... Sanchez to be frank, well he sucks!

If they leave it up to the running game, they may stand a chance, but the defense really needs to step it up!

NYCGarbagePrince · 01-11-2011, 07:43 AM

Tom Brady is flaming alright...

"Peyton Manning would have been watching our game" Discuss....

I hate the Jets... but Rex is funny.

Haven't read or posted here in a while so I thought I would reflect on some posts over the past few weeks that made me laugh:

LMAO, coach of the year??? It's was known well before then that Belichick had a far lead for that award. Coughlin is a good coach, not a great coach.

Totally agree

All the people bitching and complaining about a loosing record making it into the playoffs was a joke. And look now, they ended up beating the so called better team that shouldn't have had to be the visiting team.

Once again, GO PATS!

I could care less if he's gay as long as he keeps winning rings. How many rings does Peyton have? Lol.

Also, the Colts D shut down 3 of the leagues best running backs the last 3 weeks!

Most all defense's were ranked better than the Patriots. Rankings aren't always everything.

Oh, and my guess would be Falcons or Packers vs New England for the big game

If you would have checked the time stamp on the comment you quoted, you would have realized what you quoted was dripping with sarcasm. Eli obviously didn't fix his INT problem and Coughlin should be fired... not named CotY. Either way, I hate Pats dick suckers and you are tickling their shit with your tonsils.

Do you even watch football? The Seahawks won 2 games on the road all season. The Seahawks are a fucking joke. Marshawn Lynch is the man. I could name 5 teams in the NFL that would beat the Seahawks 9 times out of 10 that didn't make the playoffs. I feel EXACTLY the same way now, maybe even more inclined to say its bullshit. NO had to play in fucking Seattle when they had 4 less wins... If you are gonna try and convince me that the Seahawks would have won in NO, you are wasting your time. Home field advantage is one of the most important advantages you can have going into the playoffs in any sport. And they gave it to a 7-9 team.

If Bill Polian ever made a move in his entire free agency life...

THIS SHOULD BE IT

But I know it's not going to happen...I just hope it's not the fuggin cowboys...

Word is Detroit is shopping him too, but his contract would probably be the sticking point there.... I can't imagine where Detroit's defense would be with a shutdown corner and one more decent linebacker....

agreed

they're turning into the Texans of the NFC North. Getting a good team together, but the division is too strong to do anything with it.
