Default Political Correctness, the NFL, and McClain!



I have watched "highlights" on ESPN and the NFL Network and have yet to see a video of "the slam."

It was a great play and I see no reason why it is not being played for national audiences. One has to wonder if political correctness has anything to do with this- it is too violent and therefore it glorifies violence, thus no major coverage of the video. Bah!

ahh dude, My brother could not watch the game yesterday. So we were skiming last night during "Sunday Night Football in America". We kept switching through espn, espnews, espn2, NFL Network. AND NOTHING! no game highlights or recaps. All it was, Brett Favre, Vick, and Dallas losing.

Yeah, it has been like that, but even when they do show some Silver n' Black footage, I have yet to see that slam on video again (for national tv).

On a side note, I am starting to wonder why that was unnecessary roughness and this was not?

YouTube - Body Slam
Because it was the Steelers not the Raiders. The Raiders would have been penalized.

I like he aggressiveness, but the tackle was a little over the top. He had the guy dead in his tracks and could have thrown him to the side easily , but he took the time to adjust so he could suplex the guy. It reminded me of the slam the McMahon took back in the day that broke his shoulder. He could have hurt the guy bigtime.
