Andre Johnson: Fined, not suspended
http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d...e=HP_headlines
You mad? I'm torn. The fact is that you can't allow punches on a football field. At the same time, Finnegan was busting him in the jaw all day and it wasn't like AJ swung his helmet at him. Ultimately I think I'd have dropped a heavier fine on both of them, but I don't think I'd have suspended him either. (Tangentish - Courtland Finnegan is a MFing douche, glad someone gave him a bit of a pop...) |

Bottom line for me is, if you throw a punch you should be suspended. AJ threw a flurry of 3 punches.

Wanna know Finnegan's reputation in the league?
Andre Johnson was given a game ball by Houston. If Richard Seymore doesn't get suspended, AJ damn sure can't.

That's the main reason I said I'm ok with it.Next time he has to sit for a whole game or so and pay up.

Didnt think he would receive a suspension. Seymour didnt get one, no way Johnson was going to.

Well when you are ejected from the game, they look at that as part of the "suspension" from my understanding.
Second, AJ has never been ejected from a game before or leveled a fine for dirty play. Seymour should have been suspended IMO because the guy was thrown out of a game just last December. He's dirty. **** him. |

They need to allow fights in the NFL like they do in hokey. You don't stop it until someone goes down. I wanted to see Finnegan get knocked the **** out. Just seeing him clap and laugh because he got a reaction from AJ made me want to hit his face with a baseball bat.

Ultimately I think it all comes down to the Seymore ruling. Now I'm really looking forward to the ruling on that James Harrison hit. Yet another helmet to helmet shot on a quarterback by the guy that the rule was pretty much written for. Another leading with the crown shot, no less. I'll concede that I simply dislike James Harrison...a lot. So I'm not exactly objective when it comes to him, but how can he avoid a suspension at this point? It'll be the 3rd such fine in something like 6 weeks since they instituted these rules. You have to sit him down for a day, don't you?
