lol, you are making excuses for Finnegan and for Seymour, I'll leave it there.

Isn't Finnegan one of the more frequently fined players in the NFL? I know from watching the Giants/Titans game and the Eagles/Titans game that he is a huge trashmonster... I wonder how they'll handle him.

I have one stance in this entire thread that is unwavering: The reason that Andre Johnson was not suspended is because Seymour walked away without one. You can say what you want about how I'm wrong, but there's an NFL decision that is on my side

Finnegan smashed Andre in the facemask with both hand AND punched Andre before Andre took a single swing. Pimp slapping a QB in the head doesn't not happen all the time, either. Really poor response, expected better out of you.

One swing after someone says something to you is worth three swings after someone hits you twice, isn't that how the old saying goes? Oh wait, that was one in the hand is worth two in the bush

Shocked we're getting a sandwich pick from Javvy. lol. Uribe seems like he should fit the Dodgers well. Everything Belliard was supposed to be.

Agree with this 100%. But, seeing as how Seymour wasn't suspended, they couldn't justify suspending Andre. The Seymour decision laid the grounds for this one.

Provoked punches thrown. Punches thrown after being struck first, twice. Seymour pimp slapped a quarterback after the play. I don't get how this isn't being realized, but cool. Y'all have your convo, I'm out.

Words, absolutely. Words don't justify hitting a quarterback in the head... lol. Finnegan hitting Andre TWICE is much more of a justification than Ben whispering sweet nothings to Seymour. Don't get me wrong, Ben got what he deserved. I don't think Seymour nor Andre should have been suspended. But you can't say Seymour shouldn't have gotten suspended but Andre should have, the Seymour non-suspension set the grounds that kept Andre free.

If you don't think Seymour not being suspended for striking Ben in the head set the grounds that kept Andre from being suspended, you need to pull your head out of the sand.

So let's get this straight. A QB saying something behind a DE is grounds for the DE to strike the QB... as long as he claims he doesn't know who it was. But A CB shoving a WR in the facemask and punching him is not grounds for the WR to throw the CB down and strike him. I totally understand your logic and where you're coming from, thank you so much for waking me up to this thought process.

Peter King has ties to all things football, and inside info when it comes to Jon Gruden. He has infinitely more sources than your scout.com buds, who correctly predicted a bad coach being canned after a bad season... shocker Look, I'll leave it at that. Posted a tweet from an incredible NFL source, hit me up if you get something similar. And I'll be here to eat crow if Gruden is a Hurricane.

A DE striking a QB unprovoked and a WR engaging a CB who hit him first... You're right, they're absolutely nothing alike. Especially in a league that protects the QB.

...I don't bring them into any conversation, typically. Could hardly mean less to my everyday life. That was your opportunity to explain your hate for King. But... I guess defending the Pats honor took precedent

I wouldn't call someone posting on the scout.com forum an "insider". But... maybe. King tweeted that the rumors sounded fraudulent and he'd update if he learned anything... Then followed it up with what I posted above. Have to believe the Gruden thing was not real.

One of the best and most informed in the business, no surprise you don't respect him... -_- What, did he make a negative comment about the Patriots once?

Like Richard Seymour was?

Several trusted UM insiders told you that it was a done deal?

Adam_Schefter RT @SportsCenter: NFL - FOX 26 in Houston: Texans WR Andre Johnson won't be suspended for fight ... Good reporter here but still no confirm.

D: All of the above.

@SI_PeterKing: Jon Gruden is not going to the University of Miami. Period.

RIP Leslie Nielson

The refs ruled him as having given himself up on the ground, that's not reviewable.
