I hear the pregame show for the Superbowl will include Pollard as the x-factor. |

Still a bizarre set of coincidences. |
I haven't even heard a single Patriot fan try to claim Pollard's hit on Ridley was dirty. Ridley ducked his head like they tell you never to do and Pollard just took the hit any defensive player would have.
It's unfortunate Ridley got hurt but it's not like it was dirty. Just an unfortunate circumstance from a very aggressive player. Pats had Rodney sitting back there awhile, they know how it is. |

you think some of these posts are bad? walk into any non-patriot fans household after that Ridley hit & see how concerned we were for his well being (maybe like a jets fans house for example)
spoiler alert: we don't care.
the average 'casual' fan (97% of fans) watch this game for those kind of hits... same reason that same type of fan watches racing for the wrecks
some of you guys are way too sensitive. but i would expect that from a fan of the opposing team whose player got ragdolled |

I'm going to go buy a Bernard pollard jersey. This guy is a hall of famer in my book. I'm going to put a picture of him on my wall and I'm going to put gold wrapping paper around it as a frame. |
Can see it now. Jersey lit on fire and picture ripped of wall when Kapernick pulls a Brady on the first play of the SB in two weeks. Pollard starts his own tradition with SF.  |
My reaction.

The only one that could potentially be considered dirty was the hit on Brady because he went into his legs. I don't believe there was ever any intent to injure....then again, I wouldn't be surprised if there was  _________________

Uh. I've never once rooted or cheered an injury to any player on any team. If anyone does, then I probably don't think much of them.
They're playing football. Not defending our human rights. It's just a game, no one deserves to get hurt. No one watches football to see people get hurt, either. Your whole post was just nonsense. _________________

People don't watch car racing to see car wrecks, that would make 97% of the population borderline psychopathic. Big hits are great, but we're talking about torn ACL's and sprained joints here. Again, if you're watching the game to see guy laying prostate with those kinds of injuries, I'm genuinely concerned. |

ok, i may have worded it a little too direct... a very small & disturbed fraction of that 97% want to see pure brutality... but i think you understand where i was going with this
the most exciting parts of these type of sports are the collisions (& big crazy plays)... whether its racing, football, hockey, MMA... its all about the contact. fans that like those sports gravitate to watching them because of the contact... that's what separates those sports from golf & tennis & for the most part baseball & basketball
its the same reason why the fans who don't like those sports refer to it as 'barbaric' or 'insensitive' & whatever else they can whine about
regardless of who you root for there was a high percentage of people watching the ravens/pats game who audibly said 'OHHHHHH SNAP!!!!!" when Ridley got knocked out
nobody really cared about SR's well being until after the fact because we were all initially jacked up that a player got rocked |

Please.... i don't mind players that play really good against us but celebrating players getting injured?  |
I think it's just a joke, just to quote the most overrated movie of all time. |

I doubt anyone is happy to see anyone hurt, just making fun of the fact that this seems to happen every time.
Dont take it so seriously. _________________ Welp |
