Granted some of that stuff is football talk, but wanting to tear Crabtree's ACL, hurt Vernon's ankle, and that head turning sideways crap about Gore (metaphor or not) just crosses the line. I hope we blow the s**t out of the aints next year, and all players mentioned above have a huge game.
Oh, and how'd that bounty on Alex go? f**k those b*****ds.
Donte knew he put Thomas to sleep before his limp body hit the ground. Went straight for the sidelines for a Gatorade, cuz this baller had another play to make in the next series. Sooooo glad we signed this stud!!

"Some Giants say they went after Williams with the intent to take him out of the game. "
I have not heard one thing about the Giants. This smells like a media witch hunt.Not saying that they were right, they lied and did it anyway, thats the biggest factor. This has been going on forever, its part of football and the reason coaches do not say much about injuries unless they have to. The other team goes after the weaknesses. Giants did it worse in that game and admitted it after. Im not upset about it, all part of the game.I love how everyone is appalled over this, wake up people, Buddy Ryan was 100 times worse! Hell the Lions were worse in 2011 and the Raiders have led the league in PFs for 20 years, think they dont have rewards? This is a joke how the media is latching onto this. Its like the Weather Channel when a Hurricane hits.
Are we just naive or pissed because it was against us or what. I'm pissed but when I talk to other fans, they kind of just go ehhh, this stuff happens all the time and the Saints already got fined. The taking Gore's head off kind sounds like a rah rah speech because players aren't literally going to take his head off but talking about Crabs ACL and hitting Alex's head all game, etc... is flat out wrong. These guys could get hurt and be done for their career. If that's what he was trying to do other players than that's what should happen to him and Payton and whoever else was involved. "Possibly hurt players for their career,... then you should have yours taken away."
Dude he talks about specific injuries he wants his defensive players to put on our best players. He's not just saying "Hit em so hard and knock em out of the game!" Thats ok to me. Motivate your team. But when you add incentives like money and talk about specific areas to target, you're wrong.
I Love how Whitner doesn't even look back, and just kind of Hero walks off the screen. Actions speak louder than the words of a bunch of fake tough guys.

They almost have to ban this arsehat for life. Can you imagine what will happen when this guy walks in the 9ers stadium next time? Any questionable play against William's defense will be whistled.

My point is that the Giants did the same exact thing one week later and admitted to it after the game in multiple inrterviews, how come nobody was as appalled then? They talked about hitting Kyles head because they knew about his concussion. How is that any different? Where was the media backlash then ?
Wow...where is the line between "contact sport" and straight up conspiracy and assault? This seems borderline criminal.
I'm even willing to let the "make his head go sideways" sht go because coaches say stuff like, "kill em" all the time..but the whole tear the ACL thing and encouraging guys to give concussions seems WAY to excessive.
