Can you not be something other than conservative and feel America is getting soft? Im neither Liberal nor Conservative, Im not a sheep and do not believe in labels. And trust me brother I have done my fair share for this country to call it however I see it. Anyone who thinks they want to challenge it please step to the stage. Know who and what your talking about before you assume.
For those saying it starts with the coaches, I say no more. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/...ted-pittsburgh-bar-accused-assaulting-doorman
The steelers origanzation is probably one of the best in sports. With that being said, they have a system. A system that has worked for 40+ years. Tomlin would be a subpar coach anywhere else in the NFL. Bradshaw is right, he is a cheerleader. Why hasn't Cowher coached anywhere else? Because he knows he can't be any better than the system he was in at Pittsburgh. The organization can control their system but they can't control the lower level thug coaches and they have a hard time controlling their players at times. But every team and the league has that problem.
Your comments in this thread show you to be one of the biggest assholes on this forum.
Spare me the back in the day bullshit. I've watched football since 1970, watched Jack Tatum level many receivers. He rarely launched his head into anyone, particularly another player's head. He hammered people with his shoulders, the way most did in that era. I've never seen so many people launch their heads into players as they do today.
These players today are far faster, bigger, and stronger than players of the past. Failing to adjust the rules for this is beyond stupid, which would make them the equal of you.
You think this league makes Billions of dollars so that the public can watch 2nd and 3rd string players? Nobody here is against good, hard hitting football. But launching your helmet into the jaw of a defenseless player doesn't make you tough. Its a bullshit play.
I don't give a shit what you've done for this country, that doesn't give you license to call these guys pussies.
I would love for one of these "pussies" to ram the crown of their helmet into your ribs, and listen to you try and call them pussies as you're gasping for air.
People in Pittsburgh saying it was clean and fair? Were t you also crying for Burfect to be suspended last year? You can't have it one way just last year when personal fouls got you into field goal range yet this year say it's good clean football. . If Burfect did that to Ben he would be suspended for a year. A few weeks ago Pittsburgh contacted the NFL to make sure the Bengals didn't play dirty
