    As I view it. It was taking too long for news of the fine to come out. With the way the Green Bay Packers were handling the aftermath of this illegal hit and the extent of the injury to Jordy Nelson I am not surprised there was no fine.

    The hit was 'in fact' illegal according to NFL Rules and a player (Packer WR Jordy Nelson) was lost to his team for a future game (s) and thus the NFL should have fined NY Giants Safety Leon Hall.

    This is a classic case of 'insult added to injury'. The question I have.: What will the Green Bay Packers 'Brass' do as a follow up to this insult from the NFL's Head Office?
    I'm sure the Packers spoke to the league office, but if the league won't fine the guy, what do you want them to do? Throw a hissy fit? Because that's SO professional and will accomplish something.

      What is your proof that the Packers spoke to the league office?

      What is with your attitude?

      The bottom line is this whole thing stinks and as a Packer fan I have every right to express my disappointment in the matter.

      What do I expect the Packers to do?

      I expect them to protest the fact no fine was levied against a NY Giant Safety that broke a league rule and seriously injured a star player on the team I support. As a follow up: This matter has to be brought up at the League Meetings so this BS is corrected before next season. The fact the NFL didn't fine Leon Hall is a huge error and injury to the Green Bay Packers; a slap in the face to all we are being told by the NFL that is being done for player safety.

        I'd tell you to go watch hockey, but if you can't handle this, you can't handle that. Go watch golf. Nobody ever gets physical on golf. This is just the way physical, attacking sports go.

          "We strenuously object your honor."

          "Overruled"
          But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

            He has defenseless player protections. The blow was made with the helmet first. I don't think it was malicious per-se, but I think he should have been fined in keeping with the way the league enforces its rules.

              ^ They never even commented about the legality. Which means it was either ignored or it was patently legal.

              Neither explanation makes much sense.
              Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

                  100% untrue. Ask Jim Brown how many times guys lead with the crown of their leather padded helmet. Spearing is a phenomenon that has only come about as helmets got strong and effective enough to protect the idiot doing the spearing.

                        So Arod was fined for his face mask.

                          Might've had something to do with ripping the bitch's helmet off and throwing it away.

                            At least someone was still feeling some fight in that game.

                                Looking at the Pro Bowl the NFL may have a field day and league fines for violating the dress code.

                                All standards have been dropped.
