    Have you watched the video?  After he's brought down and the play is done he instigates contact with Garrett by pulling on his helmet, and then as Garrett is pulled away he literally charges him.  If he walks away, he doesn't get hit in the head and nobody is talking about the scuffle today.  Not condoning what Garrett did, but Rudolph isn't blameless here.

    Consider this:  you're playing football in the NFL, you just got into a heated fight with another player.  A lineman picks you up off the ground and starts dragging you away, while the guy you had been fighting with gets up and starts shoving you and asking for more.  You can't tussle with him again as you're getting pushed away by the lineman, so you swing the helmet to get him to back off.  Again, not condoning it, but in the heat of moment and you've got someone coming at you I think a lot of people would react similarly.  

    Probably wise to back away from the keyboard for a while, man.

    It’s assault but criminally charging a football player for hitting another football player in the head with a helmet during a game sets a really bad precedent.  We watch football, boxing, and MMA because they assault each other.  Keeping the discipline out of the hands of law enforcement is really for the best. 

    I'm glad you're not my defense counsel because this is bullshit. Let's pretend for a sec that the helmet caused major damage to Rudolph -- shit, if that helmet had landed a different way it could've killed him. Would that be enough for the police to get involved? Or should they just "keep discipline out of the hands of law enforcement?" in such a scenario?

    There's a line between on-field criminal behavior that happens often (fights, etc) and being legally prosecuted. I don't know how that line should be defined, I'll admit. But Garrett sure as hell crossed it, whatever it is.

    Why the hell is myles giving an interview right now? Who the hell is in charge there? No way he should be taking questions. 

    Yeah, that's crazy.

    Tomlin's response in his presser: "Fuck off, I ain't talking about shit." Which is the correct approach.

    Cajun should definitely check out the following pic.

    Sure there's one Vic special but I'd slam hammer the rest. Yeah it was a over decade ago, but I might have been young enough to interest them then.

    Couldn't agree more. All female group playing catchy heavy rock and roll about getting drunk and getting laid, while always paying homage to the rock and metal greats. Much better return on investment than Mehringer.

    Well, let’s see here now, 1, 3,  Nope,  2, 4,  Nope.  Can I get some help here?

    Ain't a damn thing wrong with the Donnas.

     

     

  6. All of this talk about Roma and RGC has me reminiscing about a couple of trips down to Eagle Pass where I figured I was going to die. Around age 14. It later became the huffing capital of the nation. Here's photo of two carnies wrestling in downtown Eagle Pass.

    At least The Beaumont area has great fishing in the Gulf. What does Wichita Falls have outside of tornadoes and Okies?

    Beaumont is by far the worst fucking shithole in Texas, unless you're counting Vidor.
