I'll tell you what. Go on a 5 or 6 game loosing streak and they'll be throwing those health bars at each other.

Probably, but I don't see a 5 or 6 game losing streak in their immediate future. Unfortunately, they're legit. I have confidence that it will all explode in Petey's face one day but I don't think it's going to happen anytime soon.

Well, I'm probably using thuggery as a catchall for a lot of things I dislike - excessive smack talk, late hits, cut blocks, excessive contact especially on blindside hits etc. Players such as Sherman, Browner, Luke Willson, Red Bryant, Michael Robinson, Chris Clemons, Golden Tate and most of the O Line come to mind but again, I think it's much more widespread than even that list suggests.

So every team is a bunch of thugs? Ever watch an NBA game? The Cards are just as guilty as the Hawks IMO. Talking smack & showing the world it's about "me" is the new age world, not just sports but in everyday life.

Stevo, I like that offends you because IMO it says a lot about you as a person. Btw I hate all the smack talk...call me old school. Fitz, Barry Sanders & a few others are the rarity today. My dad would've personally whooped my azz if I ever did some of the crap today's athletes do.

It's just a matter of degrees Bucky. Every team crosses that line occasionally, Seattle does it more than just occasionally IMO. And yeah, I still haven't adjusted to the age of smack talk. I try to look past it, I realize it's just the way things are now. But again, some players (some teams) just go a but further.

no they don't and not every team complains about it

Luke Willson is a thug? Guy is a 5th round pick who is a backup TE ..... what did he do? block someone? this is football kiddos

SF can cry that Kam laid out Vernon Davis, it's what fans do but it was a clean shot, if AW did it cards fans would rejoice as they should ... it's football

no one likes to see their team pushed around by a team that doesn't apologize about it

call it what you will .... i call it physical football and a joy to watch

O'Brien Schofield - 1 tak.

Man. We will never replace that type of production. This guy is a lock for the Hall of Fame.
