EnFoRcEr_uPu Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 From all I've read on fines this week, I haven't seen his name mentioned anywhere. I'd be shocked if he wasn't fined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin11 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Can somebody show me the punch? I never saw it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljs Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 well I know that Hines Ward received notice for his fines about a week or two after the game...so it might be ahwile. I'm surprised I haven't seen anything on NFL.com about it either. I believe there is a youtube video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephisto Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 i would be surprised if he's not fined, he should have been ejected from the game. what a dumb thing to do, punching a helmet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonard Washington Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Moss should have been ejected or at least suspended for next week's game. His bahavior should not be tolerated. Meanwhile scumbags like Matt Light punches a guy in the face repeatedly without a facemask and all he gets a mild fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santana should be suspended for hitting a guy in the helmet once and then dropping it for the rest of the game? A fine is more than enough for that "punch." These guys are playing football for Christ's sake! It's a violent game and tempers run hot some times. I'm not saying he did the right thing...but to be ejected or suspended...that's ridiculous. It's not like he stomped a guy, spit in a guys face or punched someone who wasn't wearing a helmet or kept it up the whole game or anything.

COOLhandsCOOLEY Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Moss should have been ejected or at least suspended for next week's game. Wow, I think his behavior was less than desirable, but human at worst. A fine and a sore hand should be plenty enough retribution for that for that. I would have hated to have seen it, but if he were ejected after the incident, I'd understand. No reason to suspend a vet with a squeaky clean rep that punched a dude in the helmet after a play. Happens all the time, and it's not a big deal! T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T Moss was lucky that the ref didn't see him punch Wilson. It was a stupid move, and if the ref had caught it, Moss would have been tossed from the game. It doesn't matter if the player has a squeaky clean rap sheet, if any player is dumb enough to throw a punch out on the field, he should be ejected from the game.

bushwack Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Maybe you two should watch a nice quiet game, like golf or duckpin bowling. I understand that football is a physical game and the game can get heated at times; however, these guys are professionals and Moss knows better than to take a swing at a CB. Everyone on here would be crying foul if another WR had taken a swing at Rogers, Springs, Smoot, or Hall. However, I don't think Moss should be suspended for his actions, if he wasn't kicked out against Seattle, then that's the refs fault for not catching it when it happened.

PCS Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Maybe he will be, maybe he won't. I'd lean towards yes at this point. Be that as it may, it's not something that bothers me that much. We've all had our moments, and for whatever reason, Santana had his. **** happens. Don't like it when those moments happen, but accept the fact that we're all human and as result, emotions can get the better of us at times. BFD. :yawnee: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longbomb Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Moss was lucky that the ref didn't see him punch Wilson. It was a stupid move, and if the ref had caught it, Moss would have been tossed from the game. It doesn't matter if the player has a squeaky clean rap sheet, if any player is dumb enough to throw a punch out on the field, he should be ejected from the game. They saw it, the ref just put his flag away. That's fine, he hardly caught his facemask anyway. Although you can't throw punches. This is a civil game. I imagine he'll get slapped with a 5,000 dollar fine at least but if the ref is letting them play and Tana was getting held beyond the five yard point as they did show he's pissed. Maybe he should have punched the ref:applause: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't there a rule in the league if a player throws a punch they are automatically ejected from the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cphil006 Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 basically it was an open-handed push to the helmet. No punch they were tied up and he pushed him off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaxBuddy21 Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Im sure we can all understand getting that way during a game if you have played any contact sport but you still have to control yourself. I agree, a fine and a sore hand should be punishment enough. I was actually laughing at him for being dumb enough to hit a guy in the helmet.

mjm4soccer Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 I'm pretty sure if Santana had wanted to punch Wilson, he would have swung underneath the facemask, which it kind of looked like he did from the angles I've seen. That being said, he didn't connect, and I find it hard to believe he will get anything more than a fine for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
