  • Trent Cole fined but why?

    When you read the story about this they make it sound like Cole was compleeeetely on the other side of the field, if not some other stadium, when he maliciously attacked Okung and slammed him to the ground. Then you watch this video, and it's like WTF is the big deal here? I have no problem with players beating the other team into the ground no matter what the score, but when you are just rubbing the other team's nose in it, don't be surprised when one of them gets pissed. Okung was the one riding on Cole's back completely away from the play, as the play was ending and beyond, and Cole got annoyed - as anyone would have - and threw him off his back. Jeesh. That kind of thing happens all the time and we don't even notice, except this time the puss hurt himself and is out for the year. Seems simple to me: If you don't want to get body-slammed, don't unecessarily ride on an opposing player's back at the end of a game that you're winning handily.

    didn't really see anything wrong.
    We're looking for people that are fundamentally different,” vice president of player personnel Andy Weidl said Saturday night. “The love and passion for football, it's non-negotiable. They're caring, their character, they do the right thing persistently, and they have a relentless playing style that you can see on tape. The motor, it burns hot. You see them finishing plays. They have a team-first mentality. They're selfless individuals.

      That is complete BS! Okung should have been flagged for a block in the back or holding! It looked like he was tackling Cole.

          Okung - 6'5" 310lbs
          Cole - 6'2" 270lbs

          Okung holds Cole for 3-4 seconds until cole tires of being held and disposes of poor widdle Russell.

          Total bull shit move but nothing new for Roger and his crew of inconsistent little boot lickers. Actually, Okung should be fined for underachieving.
