John Lynch met LaDainian Tomlinson head-on early in the first quarter, a collision of two star players following a simple 2-yard run.
Normally they'd get up and get ready for the next play. Not this time. Tomlinson's helmet came off and Lynch took it with both hands and threw it about 10 yards, drawing an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty and the wrath of the crowd.
Never mind the fact that one of the most respected people in the league and a guy "who has been there before," started this crap early in a division rivalry game. I don't see anyone talking about John Lynch, and he actually cost his team something. Some people need to get some perspective.
