His reaction after the hit was priceless... he just walked a few yards down the field like awww yeahhhh... I'm me...

I could have ran into a human in mid jump and clocked him... he is such an idiot. He did TRY to lead with his shoulder though it seems.

How to spend $40K at the "tip of a hat" as it were...

Wait a minute, are you trying to tell me Asante was involved in a tackle? That's a first.

More like a sucker punch. He's also trying to play the victim card here, calling the NFL "haters".

Thats a hefty fine for that tackle!

He didnt purposely go in with the Helmet but it did make contact.

Beat me to the punch lol. That's a heavy price to pay for your first hit ever.

I remember the members here who wanted him cut because he couldn't tackle ... now he's an assassin.

I dislike Asante, but was this clearly a helmet-to-helmet hit? I'm not seeing it.
