Ok, so in your theory the only way to avoid a fine was to hurl himself into a mans knee that was running full speed in the opposite direction?
Do you see anything morally wrong at all with what you're defending here?
No, you fucking moron ... the only way he could MAKE THE STOP without risking a fine was go for his LEG.
T.J. Ward's job was to stop the ball carrier, and by doing so, to avoid a penalty for this team or fine for himself.
He stopped him.
It was a marvelous, marvelous play. It was perfectly legal, moral ... it was the right thing to do.
Way to go T.J.!
El perfecto.

To expound a little on Tour's excellent breakdown of what happened, Watching that .gif it's near certain Gronk saw TJ coming- and made the mistake of trying to run him over, and made no effort to protect himself.

only because our newest owners don't live up to the 'five year plan' that the contract was stated.
guess everybody surpasses expectations once out of cleveland.

Of the 5 years he was here, 4 were losing seasons. Of course I guess you could say that if we had kept others as long as BB then they may have had more losing seasons, but they were all fired before they had a chance to match or pass BB. (you know like Palmer/Crennell/Mangini/Davis etc. etc.

Apparently not. Like I said whatever happened to Palmer....Davis....Crennell.....Mangini...Shurmur.....all had fine winning careers after leaving here, right? Guh.

That was a cheap hit and you guys know it. I guess this is going to be the new NFL, where the greatest talents just get Nancy Kerrigan'ed on the field with the cheapest, most dirties hit I've seen in a long, long time.
Anyway, I guess it's time for NFL fans around the league to rejoice while dishonestly claiming they don't root for injuries, since their poorly coached, uncreative fucktard organizations have a better chance of winning.
You are the biggest pussy I have ever seen on the Internet.
I'm dead serious.
I have read every football post since 1997, Steeler fans, every whiney opponent you can imagine ... and that was the gayest fucking post I ever read.
What the fuck is wrong with you? It was a clean legal football play.
You root for the wrong sport son, and I think you are in the wrong country.
Let me lead the way for you ... soccer .. Europe.
Although I feel that might be too rough for you too.
T.J Ward made a fucking legal football play during a fucking football game and you are officially the biggest pussy on the internet.
I hope ... and I pray ... that you rare gay. Because, otherwise, your girlfriend is dating the biggest, sappiest, faggiest, piece of shit I have ever heard of ..and she deserves some goddamn real dick.

LOL I almost puked I laughed so hard reading this

I've watched the hit again, and think it was less dirty than I thought it was yesterday.
However, I just think chop blocks against people running at full speed, while borderline defenseless having been looking backwards a split second before, is a dirty hit, even if it's legal by NFL standards.
It's not a tackle. It's diving at a body part that isn't designed to bend the way diving at it makes it bend.
If you guys can't see something wrong with that, I don't know what to say. I'm not blaming your player; I'm blaming the league. It's just ridiculous to encourage that.
Yes, Gronk is a big, giant, strong dude, and he's hard to bring down with a traditional tackle. That should be an advantage for that type of player, instead of a career risk when people are allowed, wearing full pads and a rock solid helmet, to dive straight at your knee caps.
I'd rather see old school Rodney Harrison missiles at the upper body than chop blocks like that.

It was legal period plain and simple. There is no question of morality to even consider. Football is a violent sport. It is played by aggressive high motor high testosterone MEN who know the risks involved. I am sick and tired of hearing all the whining crap about safety , concussions, bad hits, new rules etc. To me if you sign up to play the game and take the paycheck pay the price. If you watch the game understand that is what you are watching. Otherwise pick another sport. There are plenty.
Lastly I feel bad for Gronk. Great player who just happens to be one of the guys cursed by bad breaks (no pun intended). I wish him the best he'a always been fantasy gold for me when healthy lol

And just to double check ... Your tight end is Nancy Kerrigan in this scenario, right?
