Probably not a big deal. But I've never heard of a player stopping by his old teams facility during the season. Maybe in the off-season, but during the season when you're on suspension? http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/10124249/dashon-goldson-tampa-bay-buccaneers-says-rep-dirty-ridiculous "TAMPA, Fla. -- Although he's been suspended for a game and fined on multiple occasions, Buccaneers safety Dashon Goldson said he's unhappy that many have labeled him a dirty player."Definitely," Goldson said in a Wednesday conference call with the San Francisco media when asked for his reaction to the label.Dashon Goldson says hearing himself labeled as a dirty player is hurtful and he feels targeted now by the NFL with its change of the rules on hitting receivers."I remember being on the good side of it, hearing commentators, analysts talking about how perfect, how good, how I do it the right way and all of a sudden with the new rule I'm a dirty player, a nasty player, targeted and I'm not playing the game how it's supposed to be played."I think that's ridiculous and then being targeted, I feel, because it's been a few times people have been in the situation or worse situations than me and haven't gotten penalized like I've been."Although fans and media may question some of Goldson's hits, he said he feels like he has the respect of players around the league."Yeah, I think so," Goldson said. "I think the players, they understand the game and how it's supposed to be played. They're more on my side than anybody else, and coaches on top of that. Now with the new rule you do have some of those guys as far as coaches who complain about the hit. And they're the same guys I'm sure who are teaching their players how to hit and congratulating them when they make a big hit.The San Francisco 49ers are preparing to face safety Goldson for the first time since he left the team for Tampa Bay in the offseason, signing a $41.25 million, five-year contract with the Buccaneers.But it won't be the first time the team has seen Goldson since he left. The safety was a surprise visitor to the 49ers' facility last month when he was suspended for a game by the NFL for an illegal hit.Goldson said he stopped by to see former teammates and coaches while he was in the area attending to other needs. 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh recalled Wednesday that he was surprised by Goldson's visit, but was glad he made it."I'd never seen that before, a player stop by like that," Harbaugh said. "But it was cool. It was natural. People were glad to see him. He was glad to see guys. I had a chance to see him, give him a hug and talk for a little bit. It wasn't a big deal."
And no one even noticed the micro camera.
Goldson had plenty of dead ball personal fouls before coming to Tampa. The new rules don't make him a dirty player...he already was one.
Am I the only one that sees this as an issue?
So this is an issue but 4-9 isn't? LMAO

Probably not.Plenty of other people here love turning non-issues into huge deals.

was responding to Warrenfb12's insinuation that this was an issue....I think it's a case of missing the forest for the trees.

This is very true!
Don't care
They will be ok with a six and ten record, but lord howdy if a guy actually plays the game the way it was supposed to be played.He's what would happen if lynch played the game today.
I've got enough legitimate complaints about Goldson without having to worry if he went and said hello to some old friends of his one day.
I hope they take him back.
I hope they take him back.
They don't want him back...they upgraded his position with Eric Reid.
