Champ Kind Posted October 17, 2017 Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 Not only is he a dirty player, but he is by far the biggest dirt bag in the league. I sincerely wish him the worst of luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would want to drag it out long enough to get to bye week in two weeks then sit for the Colts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would want to drag it out long enough to get to bye week in two weeks then sit for the Colts. I was looking at the appeals process on the league site. Very convoluted...as I suppose one would expect. Best at I can make it out: player gets letter advising of suspension, then lays out the process (not stated), then player may "respond" again not defined). Then league "responds" then the "process" begins. No mention as to whether accused player gets to play while going through the "process", but one should believe they can--so as not to be docked pay immediately. I recall Burdock's appeal took several weeks before the Pontiff even met with him, and didn't he play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, like I was saying their schedule is soft after our game, though they've been shitty enough to lose to pretty much anybody. And again, all of this assuming he actually does get suspended for the first time in his NFL career. Somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ Kind Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 I guarantee he plays Sunday. I think we should put #55 at fullback and put in an ISO play on the FS and just watch that dirtbag bitch disappear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 It's just too bad he didn't hit Tom Brady. He'd be out for 4 games. But no one cares about Alex Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omgdrdoom Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 Pittsburgh sports radio hosts were on this morning claiming that the only reason he even got fined was because of Alex Smith "whining about it so much". lulz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Rock Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 I didn't see the game, but I just watched the hit on this post. The play was over and he targeted his legs from the rear. Ridiculous. Any reaction from the commentators? Usually if there is, there's a phantom holding call on the defense the next play. Some bullshit makeup call that nearly everyone swallows as good enough, and everyone moves on. The most I ever see the Stealers pay for trying to end careers is 15 yards.

Speaking from a # of fine basis, Burdock wasn't suspended until after his 6th fine including multiple player safety violations, the ball tag, and ankle twisting. Mitchell has been fined 3 other times, 1 of them was taunting when he played in Carolina so this will be his 3rd player safety fine. Just to put it into perspective. The league is definitely inconsistent though, Danny Trevathan just got suspended for a game without ever being fined in the past, and IMO (doubt many will disagree) Mitchell deserved to be fined 5+ other times in his career including other hits in that Chiefs game. If the NFL is serious about cracking down on the whole player safety thing, you have to suspend Mitchell here for going low on Alex Smith AND hitting West helmet to helmet in the same game. From a pure number of fines perspective, I'm not so pissed that he isn't suspended, but there's more to it than that. Mitchell is the piece of shit that everyone else seems to think Burfict is.
