If you write the same thing so many times maybe it will come true.

As I've been saying for years, the Chiefs need to commit to being better dancers. Perhaps create a department for it.

Especially at the expense of the safety of other players....right?

It's a smart football decision at the time.

Until someone gets seriously injured and you have to live with that...

The NFL's 2015/16 "Safety" manual appear to be limited only to concussions and the application thereof. Snapped necks might make a comeback in future years.

Perhaps the best way for the NFL to deal with this is to let the players deal with it. Cheap shots will earn an equal and opposite reaction. Even if the coach takes the player out of the game, or the game ends, the two teams will meet again, and perhaps somebody else gets to take the lumps.

It becomes sort of self-governing.

I know, I know... It's 2016, only hockey still has decent fights.

I do often wish there were some sort of equivalent to hockey fights in football. You want to take a cheap shot at our QB? Well, fine, but you're about to get your ass handed to you.

Or you could let the fans handle it.

Well, the Donks do host the Panthers next year, let's hope he's not on the bench then.

Meh, who am I fooling, the NFL will issue many warnings before the game, and they won't take the shot at him that he's more than earned.

Screw bench time, he needs to have the living crap knocked out of him (at least once), and take it like a man and shove the yellow hanky back in the officials panties and tell him that he deserved that one..

Ok, I just checked and... yep, he's still a giant scumbag

Just checked again and... yep, dinver fans are still defending him

Aqib Talib is going to see his playoff share check reduced by $31,831.

Which is OK because he didn’t lose $531,250 for serving a one-game suspension.


The NFL fined Talib $17,363 for his facemask penalty on Carolina receiver Corey “Philly” Brown near the goal line in the Broncos’ 24-10 win in Super Bowl 50.

Talib was also fined $8,681 for taunting Brown in a separate incident and $5,787 for an equipment violation (he did not wear knee pads with the end of his pant leg above the knee).

It had been suggested Talib’s admission to purposely grabbing Brown’s facemask might have been worthy of a suspension, but the league’s discipline announcement only mentioned fines, not a suspension. Talib will be paid $8.5 million in salary next year, or $500,000 per game. He also gets a 46-man game-day roster bonus of $31,250 per game.

Broncos’ defensive end Malik Jackson was also fined $8,861 for his unnecessary roughness penalty in the Super Bowl.

In the Broncos’ victorious locker room, Talib was philosophical about his payroll share check, which was supposed to be $173,000 gross, getting docked, saying winning the Super Bowl should be worth a “couple million’’ to his brand.

Doesn't look like Talib will be getting a suspension.

Which just shows all the talk about player safety is CYA rather than a real concern.

Yep. If you have a big contract you can do whatever you want on the field. The fines are a pittance, so if you're Malik Jackson or Aqib Talib or Von Miller, go ahead and continue your late hits, face masks, and personal fouls. The league doesn't care as long as you don't hurt one of their big stars.

He's a perfect Bronco. It used to be the Raiders that acted that way. He's a piece of shit. If he was offed in a drive by the world would be a better place.
