He didn't do anything wrong.

Nothing special about pulling hair. It's not considered anything but uniform.

And the tussle was 2 parts. First part was Munch trying to help Nelson by catching him. Second part was holding him back from trying to get in the player's face.

If he had just turned around and went back to his huddle, nothing happens there.


Good on the league to realize that.
Exactly. And watching it from a different angle it looks like Nelson gave a small push-off to Munchak when he was trying to go after the other player.

Suspended for the year... Should be indefinite.


Did you see him running off the field smiling after being ejected?

Smiling, as if it's funny.

Football is a violent contact sport...we all understand that as fans and some of us hark back to an earlier era in the game, but clearly the league is trying to clean up blows about the shoulders

He lacks professionalism and obviously cares little about the welfare for his peers. Agreed, for this guy, it should be indefinite.

He has been on record numerous times stating that he will never change the way he plays. Mix that with his criminal attitude and these are the results. No amount of suspensions will ever change him. Enough is enough.

This is going to be terrible to say... but how does the league respond if say he comes back next year and paralyzes someone? The league will have to answer for that. He is purposely injuring people every damn year, so at some point it isn't out of the question to think he would damage someone's career & life permanently

Exactly...I'm sure there are some suits somewhere in the NFL offices that want to get this guy out of the league....they probably don't have the goods to do it yet which leads to your point...they're being reactive instead of proactive...waiting for him to end somebody's career before they ban him from the game for good.

Good to see he's still staying active in FA.
