I honestly don't know what he was like in San Diego, thus the "maybe". Since I've watched almost every Pats game since Rodney has been here, I can say with complete certainty that he's not a real dirty player. But if you'd like to put more words in my mouth, it's lunch time and I'm hungry, so it's OK.
He had a reputaton as a dirty player before he got to NE, but he did after too, so unless you watched him a lot back then, how can you know? Maybe he did earn it back then, I just don't know. Rodney occasionally hits a bit after the whistle, but not much more often than any other aggressive player. He had a real bad late hit a couple of years ago that I thought was pretty crappy, but most of the stuff he gets flagged for is either borderline or a garbage call.
For the record, I didn't find the Pollard hit dirty. It should have been a penalty, but I really don't think it was dirty. If you do find that to be dirty, perhaps tennis would be a more suitable sport for you to watch. j/k

Hey, Monica Seles was stabed during a tennis match. Now thats a dirty play.
I just try and be objective.
