I'm just calling out all the people who acted like Myles committed attempted murder. Either the act itself is that problematic or it isnt.

You still don't have it right. It'snot about the act, it's about where it happened. Myles Garrett happened on national tv...Aaron Donald didn't...that is the difference and to the NFL, that's allthat matters. As I said upthread, Myles Garrett does that in practice...nothing happens as far as punishment from the NFL.

May want to check up on the definition of hypocrisy. The hypocrisy is with the NFL, not anyone here.

And yes, Browns fans are in their feels because they seem to be the only ones complaining.
There were some here who said "he could have killed someone", no (explaining why he needed a long suspension)?

Also, seems like 2 of us (maybe all 4) are only complaining about the hypocrisy of others. Not saying AD should be suspended as long as Myles (if at all).

agreed......but many here would want him suspended.

Ironic, huh?

And you're wrong. The only hypocrisy is with the NFL.

Not ironic at all. Saying someone should be suspended while acknowledging they likely won't be because of how the NFL does things and/or based on the CBA, is neither hypocritical, nor ironic. It's just acknowledging how things are.

Dude.

The act was absolutely dissected over and over.

Not necessarily you. But Ryan Clark and the like

Absolutely

Fun trivia question...no fair using Google...

Who was the last quarterback to take down both Peyton Manning and Tom Brady in the playoffs?

And that has what to do with where each incident took place?

I'm not sure why Browns fans are having such a hard time accepting that this is about where each incident happened, not the actual incident itself.

The NFL has been handling these things the same way for as long as anyone can remember. They aren't going to change until something happens that forces it.

exactly. We are upset the NFL is hypocritical and does not give a fuck about fairness and all the media schills who acted like Garrett was an attempted murderer and now laugh off Donald swinging around 2 helmets multiple times like a barbarian.

Yep. Personally, I think both should be punished equally as it's just as dangerous in a practice as it is in a game. But, that isn't how the NFL handles these things.
