    They have already made the game soft. The hardest hit all year was Hamlin hitting the ground. Should have flagged the Bengals for that. I vote for them all to just go away. Give the money back. IDGAF.

    My uncle drives for Pro-Disposal. A few years ago, they pulled one of his regular guys off of his route and put him on another route with another driver. Later that day, the guy(who was only 19) and the other driver were picking up a dumpster. A cable snapped and the kid got crushed between the dumpster and the truck. He died from the horrific accident.

    https://wjactv.com/news/local/man-ki...johnstown-area

    Everyone knew the kid and liked to work with him and they said that he would do anything to help. My uncle was pretty shook up over what had happened considering that the kid was supposed to be working with him that day doing their recycling route.

    Everyone continued to pick garbage that day and the rest of the week, and no one missed work.

    I'm pretty sure the medical crew down on the field yelled... "HE'S NOT BREATHING!" I noticed one medical personnel run like a bat out of hell... to get other equipment. Naturally... this made things much more intensified and emotional on the field... and the players freaked out.

    I understand... it's unusual... but I thought medical personnel was supposed to remain calm at all times? Word traveled fast.... MNF... world wide feed... and now you have this.

    I get it... you don't make $45,000 a game... some make $1,000,000 a game. It's the risk you take... to make the money you do. And now they are complaining???

    Joe Burrow is friends with Ryan Leaf and often gets advice from him. He attended his camp as a youth.

    If a guy isn't breathing then yelling and running for equipment seems perfectly appropriate, does it not? Now if he started crying and praying, then that's inappropriate.

    Why compare? It’s been like this since you were born. This is life, you aren’t going to change it. Rich people have advantages, poor people have disadvantages, famous people have advantages, non famous don’t. It’s the way it is and you will never ever change it so why let it upset you?
    If the Bengals decided they didn’t want to play and you truly want to show your frustration then don’t watch the sport. But you better have another 10 million people who will follow you or you just wasted your time. But let’s be honest football is an addiction and gamblers can’t stay away

    Here’s the thing though, it my opinion don’t bitch just to bitch. If you truly have an annoyance with something you have two options. Option 1 you bury it and shut your mouth or option 2 you start some sort of movement. In this case there’s no movement because you have to know the audience, no one is going to come out and say well we don’t care about that bills player as long as we get football. So the solution is to move on and shut up about it or never watch football again.

    They don’t need to. They developed a talent for many years while you were screwing off and they are reaping the benefits because of it. You are a cog in the wheel who has no voice and they have a voice and you are so triggered about it

    If teams don't want to play, it isn't affecting me, it is affecting the entire league. It isn't fair to the other players.

    It'll never happen in Goodell's league.
    Goodell is judge, jury, and executioner in the NFL, and he's pure evil.
    He knows one thing, the all mighty dollar.

    You mean the guys that need to actually make a living and don’t have $100 million guaranteed? Yes, those guys. Businesses don’t shut down for anything. That’s real world. My business partner keeled over in the office with a heart attack 2 years ago. Guess what? We got back to work.

    Life isn’t fair. It’s a league built on more than a few players that got shafted. You seem to have no problem with black people getting their land stolen from them historically. You were anti against giving them their land back but now you fight for the 700k nfl role player? Make up your mind

    What we're witnessing is pro football unraveling in real time. The players union will demand more equipment and safety features, fans will complain that the game has got too soft, the league will make rules adjustments on these targeting calls, the NCAA will follow suit and also adjust rules on violent hits...the violent game that sports fans love is being questioned by the athletes that play it. As time goes on it will become more of a game of flag football.

    And who knows? Maybe that's what's best. But one thing is for sure.

    People on this website will whine about it for years.

    There is more coverage for this kid than on 9/11…I get it we all want the kid to survive, but enough is enough already. NFL players are such hypocrites as they celebrate huge hits and dance around when the player they hit is laying there.

    just look at this past Sunday with Foles. The dude from the Giants is doing snow angels in celebration while Foles is right next to him and convulsing. Bullshit he didn’t see him injured as he went to the sideline and made the sleeping gesture while the medical personnel were working on Foles.

    They can cancel the rest of the season for all I care….cancel the CFB championship also
