I thought the block wasn't necessary, but it was clean. They teach you to lead with your shoulder and aim for center mass. I guess that's worse than grabbing dicks and twisting ankles in the pile.

I thought it was a clean block as well but also necessary. Shoulder to chest. Its not a crack back. Its not a head shot. Its not away from the play. Its not late. Much rather have that vs that O line cut block on Bree when that fatass just dove at Bree's knees 4 or 5 weeks ago.



Gronk needed to get 2 for that. Mind blowing. Pats fans think anything more than a fine is clear evidence of the league bias against them. They also have this weird clinging to what Miami's alonzo did to Flacco and they mentioned that a good bit as much worse than what Gronk did. Over thanksgiving, my sister in law is a Pats fan (who is a "big" fan but doesnt follow them closely -- doesnt follow the red sox until playoffs ...) .. but she was saying how Pats fan are all up in arms about it in defense of Flacco. Odd.

The problem with the block is that he hits him in the face mask with the crown of his helmet. Thats nit picking but he does hit the face mask.

Note 1: The provisions of (b) do not prohibit incidental contact by the mask or helmet in the course of a conventional tackle or block on an opponent.

I hear ya, hard to know what is and isnt a penalty.

Seems like "resulting in injury" is becoming a consideration.
