"The league puts it on the defensive player to know when the ball is gone," Lions coach Jim Schwartz said.
....So he didn't argue the fact?
"Twenty grand? For the preseason? They're trying to send a message," teammate Nate Burleson said.
....Um, no S Sherlock! .....It's only preseason, why is Suh trying to kill people already? Sheesh, take a chill-pill already.
"I really feel like I put the refs in a tough situation because of my strength," he said.
Well, Mr. Suh, if you had not been so slow, you might have gotten to him BEFORE he threw it and not have to hit him afterward? Forward motion is one thing, but putting a man on the ground (like it's WWE) after his usefullness in a play has expired is bogus.
"I'm not going to stop playing hard,"
Because you play at one level Man-beast. ....Maybe he's just not able to understand quickly enough that the QB doesn't have the ball anymore?
Let's start cheering Trueblood every time he gets a false start because he is being aggressive! Be tough, be hungry and be mean but don't do anything stupid. You can be a violent and forceful player within the rules of the game.
Too bad TB won't ever be anything like Suh, but yeah, I agree with this.^
Compare this to a boxing match where only one boxer can commit "low-blow" penalties.
If Suh keeps it up, someone will take out THEIR QB, and that's already proved to be a cakewalk.
......Gotta wonder if Rah wouldn't put out a "hit" on Stafford if they/he pulled that crap on Freeman.
