Maybe we do need the Ten Commandments on our government buildings. If people can’t tell the difference between playing tough and willfully assaulting another player with the intent to injure them, those people are without conscience.

Plaqnned attacks with the intent to injure are illegal, immoral, mean spirited, and entirely stupid.

Think about how the other players are going to feel and ACT when they play those players who thought it was fine to attempt to end their career or life?

Think about what the NBA players do when they get clobered and there is no foul called. The matter is settled without referees, the players remember.

The other players won’t forget.

Violent? Okay.
With the intent to injure other players? Going to be a very scary rest of his career.

First of all Irvin needs to “man up!” This is football! A mans league. If you cant stand the heat well you know the rest of the story. Just shut up, hook your chin strap and go play. Secondly, from the second he opens his mouth and speaks, exactly what college did he go to? L.S.U. perhaps? His ghetto gutter speak gets very very tiring after a very few sentences! You’d swear he flunked out of the 3rd grade or perhaps all the coke up his nose over the decades took it’s toll.

LOLOLOLOLOL

No more Sapp, Irvin and company.

Whose next? Rae Carruth? OJ Simpson? Ryan Leaf?

Check out the April 5 CSN Washingtons Sports Talk Live! Brian Mitchell fries up GODdell and the nfl!!!

Injury reports are for mobsters and bounties!!!

Mike Irving, what wouldn’t this hypocrite douche bag say to get a camera in his face?

Also, I don’t think Mike’s obvious problems are from too many concussions…………….

As for Greg Williams …. Most of what was said it normal football preface hype. HOWEVER, targeting specific players injuries is BS. Shame on you. Finally, if the NFLPA uses Williams instructions, I’d fine them more . You all know better than to go after a mans livelihood!

PS Michael … Keep your mouth shut

Seriously, as a saints fan I am not really angry with most of the stuff Williams said because playing the game i have heard things like that before. Coaches say stuff to fire you up. It is mostly bravado trying to get you ready to go out and “crack skulls” as one of my coaches used to say.

That said there were 2 things he said that even I a diehard Saints fan was upset with:

1.) The bit about going for the ACL was wrong. I agree with Irving on that. Your never taught at any level to go after a guys knees or even to hit low. Low hits are something that just happens when you are getting beat and have to dive to get a stop. You are taught to hit high wrap up and tackel thru the ball carrier. Never are you out there targeting a guy’s ACL/Knee/anything low. Now in piles there is poking and pulling but again you never target a guys knees to make a tackel. That was disturbing.

2.) I was disturbed that he was encouraging guys to keep banging heads on piles. Contact in piles is allways unpredictable. Poked in eyes getting your nuts grabbed all sorts of fun stuff but it was as if Williams was encouraging the players to keep beating guys heads into the ground while in piles. That is sick and a little over the line. Not to mention it would be pretty obvious and likely result in a personal foul an ejection and a hefty fine. I know they had the bounties but from what I read and hear it wasn’t that much money. Just dumb and plain stupid.

I don’t think he needs to be banned for life like a lot of folks are saying. I think Williams is wrong but there is a lot of overreaction going on out there too. Williams talks crazy that is just his personality. However, even that isn’t an excuse for some of the things he said. I know it was bravado but even bravado can cross the line at some point.
