Raheem Brock to be fined for hit on Roethlisberger

Even though it happened to Ben, It was a trip and it def wasnt intentional. If that were Kiesel or someone on the steelers, we would be bitching about the fine. I kinda feel for the guy, but it is what it is.

Well, he continued with the tackle, rapping Bens leg up. It wasn't like he tried to avoid or disengage.

Hit is shown at the 1:15 mark.

Well, he was definitely tripped and I'm not sure how a guy is supposed to adjust when going full speed and something like that happens, but I'm also not sure how James Harrison or anyone else is supposed to adjust when going full speed and a ball carrier ducks/croutches at the last second either. At least in this instance there is some consistency............

Pretty appropriate. Knew it'd be somewhere in the $10,000-$15,000 range.

I just think its funny how charles woodson upercuts a guy TWICE. Then he only gets a 15k fine. Then there was NO media attention to it cause the packers are a good organization who doesnt play dirty is what im assuming

. If James was uppercutting someone, itd still be replayed till today and espn would still be talking about it. lus the fine would prob be smewhere around 50k.

After Dunta Robinson laid that punishing hit on Maclin, my friends (who is a Patriot fan) facebook status was, "way to go dunta. now james harrisons gonna get fined another $30,000." I commented on it that I'd never heard someone that wasn't a Steelers fan say that. He replied, "im not defending harrison at all. im just sayin the nfl hates him more than anyone." FINALLY someone from a different fanbase admits it.
