Smh Micah needs to log off.

Can’t post it cause it contains NSFW language, but go look at Micah’s Twitter right now to see for yourself.

It’s in response to this play.


It was a cheap shot block, it doesn't happen if they go straight at each other! With the way the NFL is calling games, there should have been a flag on the play!

Shoot we still play backyard football, our collisions are no where near that , nor are we that big and physical

This is called, "cognitive dissonance." On one hand, you say you're concerned about player safety, on the other hand you don't want to see the weaker collisions that are better for player safety.

Whose Favorite show?

For the record I was pissed when I heard that BS that Micah was gonna devote His time to it during the season . . . I Didnt want Him to be apart of that side show . . . used as a prop

I thought it would be degrading and a Joke to the franchise

Usually Players wait till the end of their carears to think about TV . . . He wants to do it in His second year

And Jerry was OK with it

At least if He does do it (I hope He doesn't) . . . He will not jave to answer dumb questions and make excuses for Dak

That would have been torture to watch all year
Like a weekly “Hard Knocks”. Skippy and Horseface were probably licking their chops:
1)A HUGE ratings boo$t, with an inside look at the Evil Empire, the Dallas Dumpster Fire.
A)Partially deflate the Parsons legend.
B)Cause additional distraction.
2)Jerry LOVES the attention. He’s like Gene Simmons: boost the brand I’d priority one!

This is called comprehension, I never said I didn't want to see collisions, I said, I don't want to see hits on defenseless players, especially when engaged.

Wouldn't be an issue if they took off the helmets.

Where have you seen an offensive player "getting away with murder" on defenders? Defenders are on missions to knock offensive players out so when an offensive player can get one in, they gladly take the opportunity.

are you legit asking this question in a serious capacity, or in a hyper defensive way because you are attributing a position to me that you want to shadow box with? to reiterate, my position is of consistency and lack there of in the league slanted to the offense. If defender launched himself in that way to make a hit, 9/10 out of ten they are going to call it. They aren't going to get the benefit of the doubt. Protecting players is more about protecting the offense because they draw the money and they kinda have a point. If Parsons goes down, it's a huge blow but not the end of the season but Dak going down it effectively feels like the seasons already over.

It ain't just "kids today." It's dang near half the adults too. But that's why these guys have agents to tell them what they're getting into in the first place.

Well sure it IS half the adults. This erosion has been happening gradually for over 40 years. College professors influencing youth, the breakup of the nuclear family—brought on by corporate greed, yada yada yada. The agents #1 priority (by a mile!) is commissions. Everything else is colored bubbles.

It would be , because as I said you can't eliminate all head contact with that many players on the field that big and fast. Somebody would leave with a cracked skull

You're acting like they would play the same way without helmets. They wouldn't.

I don’t fault Fournette AT ALL! He’s a tough football player, and IMHO, he was just doing his job. That said, we all KNOW (except for stupid people, or those with an agenda), that if their pass rusher was engaged with Smith, and Elliott had tattooed him like that, flags most definitely would have flown. GUARANTEED!

They would, football players are wired differently, it's natural to drop your head when about to take a hit to protect yourself. It's still lowest man win

Rugby guys aren't much different. Definitely tougher.

They're different and it's not to the level of football, saying their tougher is an opinion.because we go out back and play football with no pads doesn't make us tougher

We’ve got the softest fans.

That was not a “blind side” shot.

What Golden Tate did to Sean Lee was a crack back blindside shot.

If that was Zeke leveling Devin White our fans would be heeeeehawwwing.

Shuddup.

English rugby league plays 32 games. You play that many games in a physical sport like rugby you earn the title, "tough."

Sorry my friend, but I don't see how Micah not having a helmet would have kept Fournette from hitting him in the head. Fear of reprisal, maybe, but other than that, I don't think he would have changed a thing.

(That's assuming I'm right about it being a hit to the head/face.)
