T.J. Lang is a lot more forgiving about getting kicked in the groin than most of us would be.
Lang, the Packers offensive lineman who was kicked in the “sweet spot” by Vikings defensive end Brian Robison on Sunday, wrote on Twitter that he’s not mad about it after Robison apologized.
“Glad to report my genitalia are in stable condition and expected to make a full recovery!” Lang wrote. “All joking aside I think Brian Robison is a heck of a player. Just caught up in the emotion of the game. Apology accepted.”
For his part, Robison wrote on Twitter that he expects to be fined more than $10,000. If he loses anything less than a full week’s game check, he should be thankful. The apology from Robison was fine, and the forgiveness from Lang is commendable, but that doesn’t change the fact that this was one of the cheapest shots you’ll ever see on a football field.
