I don't post much anymore but since this has happened I'm very intrigued by this whole saga. I have been working in another state and have been away from my family for a long time so this has been something to keep me entertained. I have been intrigued the most about how extreme some of the responses have been. Then I've been seeing people say if so and so did this how would people have reacted? But my question is how would people have reacted if this was 15 or 20 years ago? For one thing I don't think people would be calling for Myles to be put in jail. People are so sensitive anymore anything hurts their feelings.

Which is why I believe a helmet is no more a weapon than a player's cleats are. If that were the case, Haynesworth would have probably went to jail for felonious assault. Antonio Brown put his spikes in the head and neck area of Spencer Lanning while running full speed and people laughed about it. As pissed as I was about that it still isn't a crime but he should have got suspended for that. All I'm saying is there needs to be some consistency. Myles Garrett's punishment does not fit the crime and isn't consistent with anything we've seen. He needs to file a grievance with the players union.

So what you are saying is you consider a players helmet a weapon??? Do you think it's a weapon because it is off a player's head and in someone's hand being swung??? And if so, do you still consider a helmet a weapon if a player is still wearing it? These are serious questions and am not trying to be a smart ass, I just don't understand your line of reasoning. So if you answer no to the question of do you still consider a helmet a weapon while a player is wearing it consider this, go ask Keith Rivers if he feels that a player can use his helmet as a weapon while wearing it after Hines Ward slammed the crown of his helmet into his head and broke his jaw. Edit By the way, Ward was only fined 15k for breaking another man's jaw using his head as a weapon and Myles is suspended indefinitely for giving Ms. Rudolph a love tap with the padded end of a helmet. Bet all he has was some bumps and bruises, was seen laughing minutes later. So, do you still think the punishment fits the crime?

Roger Goodell needs to be fired, the way the NFL handled this is a disgrace. They suspended Myles almost instantly after this incident happened, didn't even wait for any details to emerge, no due process. The first thing we should have saw was Roger Goodell in a press conference immediately following the game stating what an UNFORTUNATE incident this was and they will do their due diligence investigating this and all parties will be disciplined accordingly. Instead Myles go directly to the guillotine and Rudolph is almost completely absolved of any wrong doing all the while social media is calling him to be banned for life or to be sitting in jail. If it wasn't for Roger Rabbit be so quick on the trigger to suspend Myles, his suspension might not be so lengthy. Roger made a knee jerk reaction and suspended Myles just to appease social media and Stoolers fans.

Who else hopes "NFL'S a bad lip reading" does a segment on this whole thing.

The helmet swing looked bad when it happened, but it's not really THAT bad. We are not used to seeing things like this so when it happened everyone is appalled and it didn't help a lot of people super overreacted to it. Once more details started to come out I think people started to calm down. It is what it is, a football fight that happened on a football field that should (and was) handled in house. The fact that the Cleveland police were seen leaving the locker room and the talk of legal action are totally absurd. AND, this could be the shot in the arm this franchise has needed for quite some time. The Browns are in the thick of a playoff hunt and you bet your ass the Pittsburgh rivalry is back on and everyone's got that game in Pittsburgh circled. If you're a Browns player and you're not up for this game, take off the uniform and go play soccer.

Myles Garrett wins!!! FLAWLESS VICTORY. FATALITY.

What Myles did was wrong, but the punishment doesn't fit the crime. If you shoot at someone, miss and hit the wall, you don't get charged with murder. Myles swung and connected with the helmet but he is 6'4 275 pounds of solid muscle and could of destroyed Mason Rudolph's head with that helmet. I think it's safe to say he either realised his fuck up and held back, or he never had any intention of hurting Rudolph. Second, it was absurd that the Cleveland police were seen leaving the Browns locker room, this was football fight no crime here, should be handled in house. I actually feel bad for poor Myles for being treated like a felon. Third, if Rudolph actually filed charges, he would been laughed out of the courtroom and possibly the NFL. And he probably would of had a target on his back. 4-6 games would have been more than adequate. FREE MYLES GARRETT

Nah, no need. I just used this place to lure the needle dick mod out from under the rock he lives under so he can be a man and explain why I was banned for no reason. Still no explaination, funny. I have no other reason to post here anymore. There is a reason why I chose to go to the other board. Well, Cheers.

Because I got banned for no reason and I can't even fucking find out why or defend myself because the cowards that banned me don't like what I had to say so they try to put a muzzle on me. That's ok, you can enjoy your dictatorship over there in shitbag land. I'm done with that place.

HAHA, the irony is the thread was about Baker's height and they just showed a graphic on the TV and out of Sonny Jurgensen, Len Dawson, Fran Tarkenton, Doug Flutie, Michael Vick, Drew Brees, Russell Wilson, and Kyler Murrey, Baker was the tallest one! You know, I am glad you banned me because I don't have to be a part of that shit fest anymore.

So let me ask you, why was I banned? Because I told some guy to fuck off? It wasn't even a personal attack, it's called freedom of speech. So you guys let newbie take personal swipes at members that have been with the board since it started? Get the fuck out here.

Just got banned (from B.A.R.K.I.N.G. H.A.R.D) for calling another member out on some bullshit and the other guy started taking shots at me and my family, specifically my sister. But I'm the one getting banned and not one thing happened to the other guy. My sister, by the way, is a Navy veteran and a cancer survivor. Not so much as an apology, just an immediate ban for "Slandering Admins" which never happened. It's clear the admin is biased towards other people who don't share his political views. Of all the shit I read on that board, I'm shocked I got banned for the stuff I posted. Really, such a trashy place.
