NFL Week #15

Well I know about Ray Lewis' situation....but care to elaborate?
Sure. Ray Lewis is a main reason I don't like them. Billick was also a reason, the way he stood up for Lewis during that whole mess. Then there's Donte Stallworth, Jamal Lewis (old school, but whatever). Terrel Suggs also had a history of trouble, always escaped conviction. Beyond that, I just see them as dirty playing thugs, personally.

Oh....so you don't like the color purple, then? ;)

All right, I was just curious. Did you see when Anquan Boldin threw a football at that Chiefs fan? This was when he was still in Arizona...it was hilarious. The guy wasn't even paying attention - just eating his popcorn and talking to his buddy - and he got whacked with a football. :p

No. Never saw that. He threw it maliciously? I like Boldin, but that's dirty.

There's some debate as to whether it was an organized effort, and whether that's OK or not.

If I could get youtube, I'd provide a link....but yeah, he scored a TD, was celebrating, and in the midst of his celebration, noticed a Chiefs fan sitting behind the end zone. He double tapped the ball, threw a spiral right between the numbers and watched to make sure whether or not it got to him. It did, the guy looked surprised, and Boldin jumped up in the air in celebration.
 


It's hard to tell in this video if it was an attempt to harm someone in the stands, but maybe further proof as to why he is a WR instead of a QB. :D

Although what transpired is a little different than how our buddy macaroni tony likes to tell the story.

I'm pretty sure he wans't trying to hurt the guy, but sure wanted to hurt his feelings.

I once heard someone say "They only moved Boldin to WR in the NFL because he's black (he played some QB in college)." Well, turns out...it's more like he's a phenomenal receiver, and he can't throw very well :D

The Jets' Alosi is now suspended indefinitely. He instructed several inactive players to stand there and form a wall--several feet in front of the white line that players are supposed to stand behind--during the play. He apparently denied this on Monday. Westhoff and Ryan supposedly didn't know about this.
