StarBoyz83 · Sep 19, 2012

Well thats lame so theyre more worried about fining players for wearing the wrong color sleeves than a dangerous hit???

So you're saying everytime a rule is broken a player should be fined?
Offsides? Fine him
Pass interference? Fine the bastid!
Illegal block? suspecnd the fool!

:laugh2:

Come on, you know you can have an illegal play without a fine.

Find it a bit funny the Cowboys and the announcers for the game were all thinking the flag was on the Seahawks for this hit. I understand some of the old football mindset that this hit is legit but when the league is the one trying to ensure player safety this hit flys in the face of what they have been calling over the last couple of years.

And the flag, a push in the back as the seattle player was going out of bounds. :laugh2:

The other side of this issue, and I am not saying that this is the case, but the NFL has a bit of a PR dilemma. IMO, this is clearly an obvious illegal hit. However, the call was on what I would consider a ticky-tack personal foul. Now, the NFL has a credibility issue here. How can you miss this call and call the one you did? That's a problem for the NFL IMO. This only supports the fact that the NFL has incompetency in their current model.

Fines usually don't come out until later in the week.

No, what calls where made on the field where the calls that were seen by the refs. If the refs didn't see the hit on Lee, then they couldn't call the hit on Lee. I can't imagine any ref not calling that after seeing it happen.

Exactly, how do they call the other one and not Tate's is the biggest issue here. If no call was made at all on that play, this probably would have blown over quicker. The travesty was seeing Lee get lit up while Carter got the PF for a little shove.

That's a valid point. However, I do think it unlikely that none of them saw it. I mean, the QB ran right past the block. It could be the case but I would think that somebody should have seen that. Doesn't matter. I think the fact that the fine has come down pretty much confirms that it was an illegal hit. That doesn't change your point thou NYC.

True, but how could any of those ref's not have seen that block? I almost felt it

How about you people stop crying and being so emo? I guess the Eagles were soft too huh? This board is hilarious after a loss like this. It was a legal hit. There wasn't anything cheap about that hit. Some of you are just so in love with Sean Lee that YOU took the hit personal.

The subject isn't about whether the Eagles were soft or not. It is about whether the COWBOYS were soft or not.

YosemiteSam · Sep 19, 2012

I can't testify that they did or didn't see the hit. I can say they would be absolutely nuts to actually see it and then not call it. They are scab refs. The NFL wouldn't think twice about replacing one in a heartbeat if they suspected them of playing favorites and not calling that penalty.

I'm Doomsday101 and I approve this message. :laugh2:

It's illegal by today's lousy rules but for decades it was perfectly fine.

If Miles or Dez made that block I would applaud them.

Never underestimate the persistence and overall incidence of stupid.

"...I'd like to grab him and ring his neck. I hope they fine him a million bucks for that cheap shot he put on him." ~ Randy White :laugh2:

I agree with Randy! Cheap shot and then the celebrating made my blood boil. Sean Lee said he didn't mind the hit either. He did mind the celebrating.
