Joshy-good comments. Shouldn’t we Packergeeks be flooding Roger Goodell’s email with emails about his pinky kissing penalties for Allen and coddling Pacman? Joshy, are writing from work?? Tsk. Tsk.

This is no longer notional, here is the story from the Dallas Morning News. I wonder if Jerry Jones has some influence over Rog?

DMN Cowboys beat reporter Brian Davis, attending the Final Four announcement, reports that Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones said that suspended cornerback Adam Jones has been cleared to return to practice next Monday and will be eligible to play Dec. 7 at Pittsburgh.

This is the THIRD game in a row that Allen has been fined for a total of FOUR dirty hits. (Chicago, two against Houston, Green Bay) He has been fined for a total of $80,000. Does a QB’s career have to end before this guy gets a suspension?

this is absolute garbage. find jared allen’s 2 (YES, TWO) intentional helmet hits on matt schaub’s knee in the same game, and then watch the clip from two weeks later for an obvious head-hunting hit on aaron rodgers. he essentially head butted him with a forward dive, and then had the audacity to wave his arms in a sort of ‘whoa, i couldn’t stop my momentum’ plea to the ref.

if i were allen (i’d shoot myself, but before that…) i’d be laughing all the way back from goodell’s office. $25,000???? seriously. fines under $500,000 mean nothing to these people. absolutely nothing. handing out fines like this in the NFL is like handing out coupons for Bed Bath and Beyond at a Gwar concert.

i’m all for the ‘punishment fitting the crime,’ but i think we need it to fit the perpetrator as well. players react to missing gametime. $25,000 is a weekend of drinks and a ride on the Love Boat for a guy like Allen. the guy is 26 years old and thinks it’s funny that his number is 69, has a history of drunk driving and dirty play, and he’s the one getting breaks. laughable, if only his status didn’t affect the packers’ season.

Crap – Jared Allen avoided a suspension for his hit on Rodgers. He was fined $25k and I think Goodell made him pinky swear that he wouldn’t do it again.

Guarentee Ole Rog won’t be conserned about ticket scalping if they can figure out a way to get 1/2 the profit from the scalpers. Based on Jones and his antics with the new Cowboy Stadium, they sure don’t give a crap about the fans.
