Thank you!

I may get flack from this due to a few family members being fans but I would like to thank Richard Seymour for finally doing what millions have wanted to do for a while. Punch Ben Roethlisberger in the face. First off his last name is a pain in the butt to spell. Rothlessburger. That is how it should be spelled. It makes him sound like a horrible piece of steak that no one will eat. Second, the guy is a douche. I am sorry but he is. His past actions and attitude has really turned me off to anything he has ever done. I would gladly take the $25,000 fine for letting him have it. That man makes my skin crawl. 

I also have an idea. This whole helmet to helmet situation. I witnessed a few fines that were given as a result from some games this weekend and started thinking about this situation. They started fining players for unnecessary helmet to helmet contact. I think it has prevented some but not all cases. There are some hot heads on the football field. My proposal is this: Whoever you hit helmet to helmet, you pay them the $35,000 instead of the NFL. I am sure players will knock that off immediately. Losing your money to the NFL isn't as depressing and losing it to another player. Just an idea.

Again, thank you Richard Seymour! I owe you one! =)
