Collinworths says Haynesworth should be arrested!

[zrinkill]

Hey chief - do you want to re-read my post? Did I say it wasn't bad? Did I not say it's possibly an arrestable offense?

Did I say not to complain about it?

I said don't say that Haynesworth put all his weight on Gurode's face.

Don't say Haynesworth ground his cleat into Gurode's face.

Don't say he stomped down. There's a distinct difference between a stomp and a jab.

Because they're simply not true. It didn't happen at all like that, and there's plenty of footage to back that up.

I think Haynesworth is a schmuck, and anything less than a full year's suspension is crap. I think he should be fined out the *** - but I'm not embellishing what actually happened.

Someone needs their eyesight checked.

I'm not defending him...he's got an anger problem, but the guy didn't do something that ranks among the worst ever on a football field.

ok, what would rank worse on the football field than what we saw today? I've seen alot of tragic accidents that would be worse because of the consequences, but what happened today wasnt an accident..it was done with malicious intent and could have easily blinded or even killed Gurode

its the worst thing I have ever witnessed on the football field, I really dont see how you can argue that it isnt that bad

Would that be me, or people who are fabricating the accounts of what actually happened?

Just to clarify..

I've been watching football for a long time and I can honestly say I have never seen anything that blatant.

How exactly do you think he caused 30 stitches worth of damage without stomping? I've been stepped on by metal cleats and they gave me the option of 3 stitches or a couple of butterfly bandages. Not 30 stitches. That requires a large amount of force.

I'm with ya there pops. Crazy crazy stuff.

I don't think you'll find a government in the United States that would prosecute. Just saying.

I bet you they would if someone decided to pursue this

Because stomping is defined as "..to strike the ground with the foot, as in anger or frustration." So, the people who are saying that's what he did are implying that he pinned Gurode's head to the ground. Mainly - the people who didn't see the tape are going to think the it was some sort of savage beating.

It was a kick. A jab. Heinous. Malicious and suspension worthy. Arrest worthy, even.

But he wasn't Ed Norton out there telling a guy to bite the curb.

What happened on American History X was a stomp. What happened in Jacksonville isn't even in the same echelon as that. And I'm sorry if people can't distinguish the two.

a stomp, kick, same difference

That was classic........Gogan was ready to get his moneys worth...:laugh2:

But......Not even close as to what happened today.

 

[ComicBookGuy]

Well since you are getting all technical, the definitions of "stomp" are as follows:
-To tread or trample heavily or violently on.
-To tread or trample heavily or violently
-A dance involving a rhythmical, heavy step

And I'm pretty sure it ain't the last one. So yes it was a stomp, and nobody is emblishing it.

As malicious? No

As blantant and intentinal? Yeah

And the way Gogan squared up for that fight is hilarious

in fact they're not - and that's the only thing I'm arguing. People are asking what happened because they didn't see it, and by comparing it to a 'curb stomp,' it's making it sound a lot worse than it was.

That said - I still hate Haynesworth, and hope he doesn't see the field in '06 again.

The only thing I have seen as blatant was Marcus Vick stomping Dummerville's leg.

I saw that incident as well.....I believe This incident beats it.

I had never seen that before, I was overseas at that time. Gogan was ready to go lol

I also noticed Jeff Fisher was an assistant coach for the Iggles.

Me too. I agree wholehearted.

He held his foot parallel to the ground and pressed down. If that isn't then, will you please, demonstrate to everybody who isn't clear on what constitutes a stomp?

That was only one of them for Vick. He elbowed an assistant coach in the head, from behind of course, after he went out of bounds.
