    I think that it will be one game at most. I think it should be five. As to Ziggy's comment, the head attention wasn't being paid in Haynesworth's day, so I don't think that's a relevant point. But sadly I think he gets off light. Just like Roberson got off light two weeks ago.
    No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.

This is football, not patty-cake.
      So are you saying that getting your bicep stomped on by a 300lb guy with cleats is part of the game and should be expected? Had this been a game on real grass, the metal cleats would of/could of done some serious damage

        I'm guessing he gets a one game suspension...although it is possible we could see more depending on exactly what the commish told Suh and Schwartz at their little meeting earlier in the year. This was dirty, but really didn't threaten injury. That kick wouldn't have hurt a grandma. The head pounding was more questionable than the kick IMO.
        It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!

          One thing I haven't seen mentioned: This was a nationally televised game that was seen in millions upon millions of households. Suh has a responsibility to be a good sportsman, even if he feels like EDS is holding him. Personally, I don't think EDS was holding until after Suh body slammed him, but there aren't really any good angles to confirm or deny that.

          The fact that he embarrassed the NFL is going to make his fine an suspension worse. I think what he did on the field is worth 1 game. That he is unrepentant and/or delusional about it merits another game to get the message across. And one more game for the fact that he did it in front of millions of kids.

          Now if he takes a look at the film today and comes out and says he was wrong, and tells the country that he was wrong and people shouldn't follow his example, I am happy with 1 game for the act on the field. Remember, he already missed almost half a game because of it.

          We'll see.

            The headbanging is one thing, the stomp is another. That's where the controversy starts and he continued it with his lame fictional account of what happened.

            Well, bless his 6-4, 300 pound heart. Those mean refs are picking on him again. Give me a break! I found a new way to spell "narcissist" - "S-U-H"

            Suspend his rear end until he retracts his non-apology apology and joins the rest of us in the real world where actions have consequences. The league needs to humble this guy for his own good.

                Robison should have drawn a suspension, that was bizarre decision. Cleats are dangerous, stomping with cleats is outside the game. Suh should get longer suspension becuse of pattern of behaviour. Also, Robison is nice white man with lovely, flowing hair.

                  Robson doesn't have the reputation Suh has. Plus he apologized and admitted he was an idiot. Suh's problem is he doesn't seem to understand that his behavior is unacceptible. Because of this I have a hard time believing he'll change his ways any time soon.

                    I was reading at another site and found out that Schwartz IS an enabler. People may not remember this, but he was the DC in Tennessee when Albert Haynesworth stomped on Andre Gurode's face it usually does start at the top.

                      There might be some truth to that. It's a shame really. Those Lions fans have been waiting forever.

                          I felt bad for my friend yesterday who is a life long Lion fan. He's been trying to defend his team
                          for the last couple weeks and sounded so defeated after the lose. Well........not that bad.

                            I have been saying this for a while. Its a top down thing in Detroit I believe. The whole Harbaugh thing was because Schwartz was giving him crap sideline to sideline during the game. I think Jim Schwatz is a tool and we're not going to have to worry about the Lions as long as that guy is on the sidelines.

                              I just can't find it in my heart to fault Lee for swinging on that one. The Kitty just about takes his head off just prior to the punch.

                                The "repeatedly bashing it into the turf" should have been a giveaway that I wasn't completely serious. But three excuses that Suh can use in his defense are 1) he was being driven into the turf by EDS and his actions were an immediate reaction to that 2) Robison kicked someone in the family jewels and didn't get suspended and 3) it wasn't a kick to an unprotected melon.

                                I think he'll probably get a game or two suspension, using these arguments to say it isn't as bad as Haynesworth. Plus Harlan is right - he'llget more games suspended than Robison because he has really big guns, is black and 'looks sinister.'
