Really enjoyed this segment;
The title of that video sucks haha, I liked the whole conversation. Some incorrect information but I like hearing from guys who've been out there sharing their takes, especially a day after when the play/scrum can be adequately dissected.I saw that earlier. My only negative about it, is he said he hasn't seen it before.
But this is the third time, right? Throwing a punch at Delanie Walker. Ending the season on a late hate of Simian.
Obviously the latter is nothing like this, because late hits are by the second, but the driving into the ground on both is a tough one.

I'd be really interested to see if football starts receiving legal actions as well for on field events. A lot of what happens on a football field would be considered assault outside of Football, and you could argue someone blind siding someone or certain helmet to helmet hits would be chargeable offenses too. Given the potential long term effects. I don't think that would ultimately be a very popular decision for the players in the league. Now, granted, this isn't something in the general play of football - but neither is any fight that happens on field. This just happens to be one of the worst - although not the first time it has happened oddly enough per the videos Canadan posted.

Quoting for @blugold. Not sure how you're seeing anything else.
Also, not a Browns fan. Tried and failed per usual. Not a Steelers hater either.
I definitely see him trying to rip Garett’s helmet off, from a couple different camera angels. He tried several times to pull Garett’s helmet off.
Years ago some coward in Green Bay made a stir to take that route against Warren Sapp after a blindside hit, that was completely clean (ruled so by the NFL).

There have been a couple over the last 30ish years. Look up Bertuzzi vs Moore, McSorley vs Brashear, and Ciccarelli vs Richardson.When I was getting ready this morning, Golic & Wingo referenced a hockey incident where the offender was actually prosecuted in Canada. Sounded like an intentional stick to the face. I wasn't playing close attention, but does anyone know what they were referencing?

From SI article this morning talking about potential legal actions for Garret. https://www.si.com/nfl/2019/11/15/myles-garrett-mason-rudolph-browns-steelers-fight-legal-fallout
Law enforcement and prosecutors in Canada have been more willing to bring charges than their counterparts in the U.S. Thirty-one years ago, a Canadian judge sentenced Minnesota North Stars right wing Dino Ciccarelli to one day in jail on account of him repeatedly striking Maple Leafs defenseman Luke Richardson on the head with his stick. In the early 2000s, two NHL players—Boston Bruins defenseman Marty McSorley and Vancouver Canucks forward Todd Bertuzzi—were charged with crimes in Canada for on-ice incidents. McSorley had slashed Vancouver Canucks left wing in the head during a game while Bertuzzi had smashed Colorado Avalanche forward Steve Moore’s face into the ice

Damnit, internet.
No, it was ugly no matter who you were rooting for. Ugly ugly ugly.The Bertuzzi thing is still the worst thing I've ever watched in sports. Maybe it's skewed because I was an Avalanche fan growing up, or because of the result, but man that was bad.
