And a vicious blind side hit would from a de could kill many of us, what's your point? Hell, I guess you think hockey players should be charged with assault every time they drop the gloves.
My point is that it was felony assault. Hockey has nothing to do with this, that has been an accepted part of the sport and if I understand correctly it's only when 2 players are consenting to the fight.
I actually had an interesting conversation with the VP of my last company who is a lawyer and avid hockey fan.. my argument was, say someone goes to pummel someone in hockey, and the other person doesn't want to fight, and the guy pins him against the boards and just punches his face repeatedly?
At what point does that go from "just part of hockey" to a crime. He said there was an actual case about that but I don't remember the people involved.
Getting side tracked here, but the NFL isn't hockey... in fact, the nfl goes out of its way to not condone fighting by ejecting, fining and suspending players that do it and have domestic violence policies as well
Some reports state geno made contact first (I think I read a push or something), you can shoot people in cold blood in some states as retaliation.
Only a lunatic physco path would shoot and kill someone that shoved them, I'd be very surprised if someone walked free after a retaliation like that
I wasn't there obviously, but according to the Jets own head coach Geno got "sucker punched" which not only makes the assaulter a criminal, it makes him a coward as well
As much as I despise Goodell for the lying scum that he is, I find it difficult to jump on him about this because I remember when the news broke on this I was shocked that nothing came of it legally or otherwise
