The rule says nothing about making contact with the helmet, though. It specifically addresses “lowering the head to initiate contact.” The idea is that dipping the head, in and of itself, increases the risk of injury. The one consistent factor in all nine of the hits shown above is that the flagged player lowered his…

No, he didn’t. He lowered his helmet and launched himself. That’s what the league is trying to eliminate, since it frequently puts the tackler at risk of a head, neck, or spine injury. Had Kazee kept his head up, he’d have been fine.

Oh come on he did not “demolish” him. Beal fell hard, sure, but not because Delly threw him to the ground or anything. Tried to wrap up but Beal is stronger, started to break the wrap, but not all the way.

No way man. If you strike first, you have every fucking right to get your shit rocked. This is all on her.

When I was a kid, I used to wonder, “What does ESPN stand for?”

1 person in 10 years. Sounds like a destination wedding spot to me!

I don’t think it’s too much to ask of a sports highlight show to show sports highlights. ESPN can do what they want, but turning your programming into a low rent op ed with a sports twist isn’t my idea of riveting television.

Huh. I’m still not seeing it, on Chrome or Firefox.

“That’s not how you play hide the cigar...”

Someone fuckin hates this guy

Why would a car driving on the sidewalk bother pedestrians? It's dangerous and completely unnecessary.

This is the greatest thing I have ever seen. Fuck street runners. “Oh the road is softer on my feet!” No, I hate you.

I would say it’s beneth the dignity of Congress for someone to settle a stupid bet by singing a stupid baseball song on the floor of the U.S. House, but the past few years have shown that nothing is beneth the dignity of Congress.

So ESPN severs ties with Simmons and Olbermann, both original content creators, for cost cutting measures.

More like guy runs onto live track.

Basically the sports world's version of losing Robin Williams today. Just the way so many people have been broken up or moved to tears all day long with these tributes is incredible.

No way, you say? He stepped on Rodgers's ankle with his right leg and then proceeded to take another step back to step on Rodgers's calf, coincidentally the same calf that Rodgers injured earlier in the game.

If the Suh fits...

Tom, I'm afraid you've been hoodwinked: this is viral marketing for Bud Light Lime Straw-Ber-Rita.

I don't know. I think maybe the world's saddest Nets fan is the one taking the picture.
