  • Nelson Rib Assassin Says He Was Not Fined

    Ian Rapoport ‏@RapSheet 13m13 minutes ago
    #Giants DB Leon Hall was not fined for the hit he delivered on #Packers WR Jordy Nelson (ribs), source said. Nelson is out for Sunday.

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

    PFT has the worst pic for the hit ever. Its after the fact.

            If this was a Packer doing the hitting, or even neutral parties that I had no caring for, I would not be in favor of a fine or other disciplinary action.
            What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

              Forget new safety rules, its a cheap shot AND its with his helmet.

              Safeties did not always play this way. I would rather watch the spectacular catch attempt and any other hit than this spear.

              They should outlaw the use of the helmet in tackling. Back the O and D lineman off the ball by a foot.

                I'm a little surprised, I wonder if there could still be something coming on this. Seemed pretty clear cut, leading with crown of helmet, defenseless receiver. Add to that the exposure of taking out a starter on a team still playing.

                    I am surprised. The injury alone provides ample evidence for what happened, because neither his shoulder nor arm hit very hard. During the game, Mike P. said a fine would likely be coming.

                    Dunking the ball - $12,154.00
                    Spearing Nelson - $0.

                      Outlawing helmet hits completely would be a major and IMO unnatural change to the game of football. Instead, they should apply technology to making helmets and other equipment more protective. Somebody mentioned the Michelin man in another thread. If they are serious about greatly decreasing head injuries and for that matter, other injuries too, I say never mind how it looks; Conjure up some big balloony foam or whatever filled helmet that would withstand just about anything and at the same time not damage knees, ribs, or whatever else it hits if somebody leads with it. It doesn't seem like that sort of thing would be all that difficult to do. I bet just the weird oversize looks are the main negative. That, to me, is far better than trying to modify behavior and constantly making judgments over violations or not.

                        Such a device already exists, and was previously used in the NFL

                        A few more broken noses and missing teeth, but I bet a lot less concussions.

                          What percentage of former NFL players in their 50s do you think are in good health? I mean not limping, or drooling, or having major pain. For guys who played 5 years or more, I guess it is less than half.

                            LOL. Instead you just want "natural," giant, soft buckets strapped to their heads.

                            I know you! You were on Tosh.0! Hold on....

                              you know, i've wondered about this for years, how to make a safer helmet

                              the hard plastic is the problem, but its the same thing that protects the wearer, so i don't think you can ditch that. putting soft padding on the outside might be better, but is it enough, and will it look horrible? maybe, you get rid of some of the padding inside, then a hard plastic layer, then maybe a kevlar outer layer, the same stuff the make bullet proof vests out of

                              so thiner inner soft layer, middle hard plastic layer, and tougher padded outer layer

                              you have to do something with what has become a weapon these days, you gotta make it safer for the other guys too
