Twitter: DT Trysten Hill suspended 2 games for punch

Hes not good so it really doesnt matter

Yes unless you write rules to seperate the punishments..see I'm not arguing it was bad..Im saying its happened enough they should have written rules that define them..the whole "judgement call" doesnt work.

BTW i know you get the irony in saying that Toni and Hill did not do the same thing....

Some kind of minimum we can agree on. Just an ejection for throwing a punch isn't enough when you can just do it late in the 4th when a game is over and won't cost your team anything. Just the player's money. I do think you leave judgement as part of it to tack on more if needed depending on how bad the foul is. Punches thrown/damage done just isn't the same in every case so there should be flexibility to address that.

I mean he was basically going to always get at least 1 game because if he had done that in game then that is an automatic ejection. It seems fair for it to be 2 considering that you do not have the game actively going on so you do not have any excuses about the heat of the moment anymore; you were just an idiot.

Awww, leave @CowboyRoy alone.

The same inferior little runt who was screaming about “NO BIAS” Thursday night is struggling really, really badly right now.

Just read through this thread. He’s a laughingstock and an emotional MESS.

@CowboyRoy is a leader in search of followers, a rebel in search of a cause and a laffer in search of a joke which is he.

No way about the last part..intent is intent..If they do the action then they are not worried about the penalty not a matter of how good they can do it.

Deserved. Silly move by 72.

We'll see you in New York. Be ready and be smart young fella.

The whining is usually confined to the league is out to get us or the refs are out to get us. Every now and then you get that Mara or another owner is out to get us but you can't pull stats, rules, or video for that so I usually got nothin' for those cases and I like to bring evidence if I'm going to oppose whining. Just how it turns out.

I understand that, but what about the whining about Dak?
What about the whining about game management?
What about whining about dropped passes?
What about whining about the kicker?
What about whining about the owner?

None of that phases you, but whining about the League bristles your spines.

I just find that interesting and was asking if there was an origin to the bristling.

Not that I'm arguing your points, because I think you have solid ones and they don't provoke questioning from myself.

Doesn't really matter. You don't owe me any explanations.
I was just curious.

Where the hell you been homie?

Lol. Awesome.

 

[Cydios]

But yet didn't do a damn thing when ceedee got chocked out. Love the consistency

No worries. It's a disagree then. I think a minimum covers malicious intent. But if that's all there is and you're gonna get the same punishment no matter what, you might as well make it count and really wail on the guy with all you got for your money if you're gonna let it fly.

 

[Tussinman]

Agreed.

Almost 3 years into his rookie contract and literally all he's known for is being injured often, falling asleep during a team meeting, and punching someone after a game.

The writing was pretty much on the wall with this pick the moment it was announced

All of that other stuff you mention I consider normal fan stuff and I'll chime in here or there with those. What I don't consider normal is literally creating a whole new alternate reality to fool one's self or outright lie to shoehorn victim status on the team when we simply just lost a game. So I like to show up with evidence to the contrary to see what people do with that. I'm curious about human nature that way and fascinated about what we all need to believe at times and why. It just seems childish to pretend something is or isn't there because things didn't go the way you wanted.

Very photogenic punch.

Could end up as the highlight of his highlight reel.

 

[Verdict]

Hill deserves the suspension. But the Cowboys are unfairly targeted as a general rule. They are not mutually exclusive.

 

[buybuydandavis]

Anyone got video with at least 5 seconds prior to the punch?

I can believe that Hill would be an idiot. But you generally need to see violence in context to know what's going on.

 

[DCwarrior]

No conspiracy to see here, move along please!

 

[khiladi]

Technically Hill did it after the game…. It wasn’t an in the spur of the moment type hits these other players were engaged in. I mean it’s obvious right there, THE GAME IS OVER and this is when coaches and players are shaking bands.

Some of the players got ejected during the game. There is no game for somebody to be ejected.

Plus, Hill is not the guy to be defending, considering he pulled this on Carson:

 

[glimmerman]

Our players can be punched and choked and that’s ok.. Hill punched someone and catches 2 games. Looks like goodell strikes again..

 

[cowboyblue22]

another example of the kind of dumb football players the cowboys have dumb players do dumb things but of course it kinda comes from the top on down
