    No kidding, great catch red. I've been watching some of the old ones this past month or so and didn't make the connection but it's dead on!

      Trying my best to stay on topic, when are the new arrested development episodes being aired?

          i haven't heard, i don't know how netflix will work this. do we have to wait a full year or whatever for a new season like every other show, or will they do it sooner since they just throw the whole season out at one time

            I like Finley's tweet about the fine:

            Jermichael Finley @JermichaelF88
            Thanks To @nfl For The Fine For Playing Football.
            about 2 hours ago

            It should also be pointed out that Finley had said that the guy who gave him a concussion should not have been fined.

              Here is the devastating shot delivered to the head/neck/shoulder area of a defenseless player.

              Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

                Since when is a linebacker lined up across from you defenseless? Ray Nitschke rolling over in his grave.

                  Glad you asked:

                  411 on Finley fine: Suggs exhibited "defenseless posture." Player protected from crackback block in that scenario so unnecessary roughness

                  What on earth defenseless posture is on the D line is beyond me.

                    looks like just one hell of a block to me

                    new NFL rule, no blocking. it violates the NFL's no touching rule

                    guess you just gotta go for the knees from now on

                        Saw the picture, laaame. When does the NFL finally institute 6v6 flag football?

                          Oh I saw it. Finley was lined up in the slot and Suggs obviously at OLB... Finley cracked back on a run play and absolutely destroyed him with a shoulder (Finley is a good blocker when the defender isn't looking). Crazy hit, but didn't think they could fine for stuff like that against the offense ??

                              That play was simply destined not to work against that front as even if EDS makes his block Barclay and Jordy are blocking three guys. It could be designed to be off tackle so the CB can't get there in time but then who is Jordy going to block?

                                a crack back is perfectly legal as long as its above the waist and directed at the front of the defenders bodies

                                so we still don't know what was so illegal about it

                                and thats BS saying one of the best line backers in the game was defenseless in the middle of the play, in the middle of the action
