Remember when we joked that Andre looked like Muhammad Ali after the Washington TD?But there is this part of me that wishes Andre Johnson had connected with that shot he threw at Finnegan ... would've been lights out ...

Yeah but now he is going 2 get a suspension. I say 4 games.

No way, 1 game max if that.
What the vugg was that?! As much as I dislike Finnegan André lost his cool and shouldn't have. Knowing how cool André NORMALLY is, I can't help but wonder what the HELL Finnegan must have be saying/doing all game to make the man snap like that. AJ doesn't get rattled that easily. I've lost a little respect for the guy. I still think him a class act, but this is clearly beneath him and not one of his shining moments.
...although I have to be honest, I would have loved for him to have done this against the Cowgirls.

I just don't understand why yall would like this. It is a HORRIBLE example to set for kids. Telling kids its perfectly ok to knock someone down and take a couple of shots as the way to resolve conflict is a poor message.
Plus, this is a team sport. AJ SHOULD be suspended for a game or two. So, he will hurt the team's chances against the Eagles and Ravens. Those were going to be tough games. Without AJ those are essentially L's.
Rodney Harrison didn't get a suspension for hitting Big Ben last week, so why would Andre? Especially when Finnegan threw punches, too.

did you see the play??? Finnegan came after him hard with a push to the head and didnt have any plans to quit... Basically attacking him. He did what 99.9% of all men would have done at that point. If anything, i have even more respect for aj.

I saw it as well as how Finnegan has been messin with him all day. I won't say I wouldn't have given him a helmet to the facemask, but that's me. Hauling off and clocking the guy only makes AJ look like the bad guy no matter HOW big a jerk Finnegan is.
What kind of example does hockey set? It's a sport where the refs actually
back off, and no one is assigned to the penalty box until a player drops
to the ice.
I could think of a couple reasons why such a double standard exists, but
I'll leave it alone...

Ever try to break up a fight when BOTH combatants are on ice skates? It's not that easy and it's kind of dangerous. Someone falls and kicks and you have a damn nasty gash from the blade of a skate. Ever take a blade to the leg? It hurts like a son of a *****.
I agree. I don't like fighting in hockey either. To a certain extent you are right, though the refs are trying to limit the fighting. Yes I know where you are going with the double standard...
AJ is a person you could point to as the guy who plays the game the right way. Parents could point to a guy who works hard and plays hard FOR the team and does so in a productive way.
Johnson vs Pacquiao lol
Cosign on this one. I cant' believe that anyone would lose respect or knock AJ for this. Finnegan's been taking dirty shots at AJ for years and other players as well, but especially AJ. He took a shot at AJ's facemask and poked the bear for the last time.
I have even more respect for AJ as well. Sometimes a beat down is what a guy needs and Finnegan needs even more than what he got.
And it isn't AJ's job to teach kids how to act on a football field. It's the parents of kids that play and their own coaches to teach them how to act. AJ is only human and you can't expect him to continually put up with a dirty scoundrel like Finnegan constantly taking dirty shots at him every year. Finnegan needed to get raped.

Oh please. I would hope 99.9% of men would be able to not resort to fisticuffs. Shoving is fine, but AJ crossed the line. He ripped off CF's helmet and hit him with closed fists. There is no reason for that despicable behavior on the football field or in life.
AJ is a person many children look up to. AJ told them that the way to deal with adversity is with your hands and not your brain.
Not arguing that Finnegan didnt deserve it, just sayin that when the league reviews the tape they will see Johnson rip off Finnegan's helmet and throw and connect two punches and also rips the refs hands off of him.
Neither player is ejected from the game, nor suspended for fighting. They
just sit for a couple minutes in the penalty box, and it's back to the ice.
My description of the glaring double-standard still applies.
Nobody ever goes knee-jerk about fighting in hockey.
You don't like fighting in hockey!? Do you know anything about the sport, or are you just talking out of your @ss... Go watch soccer or tennis. Finnegan deserved every bit of that.

Yes, I know all about the sport. I am well aware of the history of the sport and thoroughly enjoy it. It does not mean I have to enjoy every part of it. I believe what is holding hockey back is the fighting.
Oh, and try to make a salient point without the use of poorly devised person jabs.
No way, 1 game max if that.
1. Yeah, CF has been doing that to AJ for years, and AJ handled it properly until now. He continually outplayed CF and made him look foolish time and time again. Instead of lowering himself to CF's tactics, he stayed above the fray.
2. That's a nice sentiment, but we all know that's not how it works. Young players try to emulate older ones. AJ has tried to emulate his hero: Jerry Rice. Would Jerry Rice ever swing at another player? Nope. He'd laugh it off and laugh as the opposing player cost his team 15 yards.
The bigger is in life. If a punk is constantly bothering you, would you resort to fisticuffs? If you do, you could go to jail for it. What made AJ so amazing was that he was like Jerry Rice in talent and personality. He didn't let opposing players bother him. Now, he has lost some of his luster.
