2. especially

3. The bigger problem is the NFL doesn't crack down on his dirty play

7. the last play of the half was over for about 5 seconds
when he hit Tuck in the back of the head. Another cheap shot.

8. Pathetic Dave! This is really sad indictment of you and your NY sicophants who have
Edited on Mon Dec-07-09 11:49 PM by madinmaryland
once again stooped to a new low!

It's really funny watching you LOSERS try and make up shit when you were not there. And the "Oh but I know someone who knows someone who knows someone who was there" does not count. That includes nomad, also.

Pathetic, Dave!

Grow the fuck up!

9. great job by you
defending the actions of a horribly dirty player. That says all we need to know about you. And you don't have to be in the stadium to see what happened. The game was on tv you know. And as for being a loser, the Giants swept Dallas and have won a Super Bowl since Dallas last won a playoff game.

I am just amazed how you can even try to defend this dirty player. But of course you didn't do that. You tried to deflect attention by personally attacking others. How very Rovian of you.

10. I was going to bring up a few incidents this year
of other players to not single him out but this guy Flozell is the dirtiest from what I know.

BTW NY Times online sports section has great articles. This one introduces and interesting loophole when it comes to personal fouls at the end of a half. But this is what caught my eye

----------------------------
The N.F.L. refused to comment on pending action, but released three previously reported instances this season in which Adams was fined.

The first was in Week 1 against Tampa Bay, $5,000 for unnecessary roughness for striking an opponent on the head.

The second was in Week 2 against the Giants, $12,500 for two kicking fouls, one of them against Tuck that left Tuck with a shoulder injury.

The third was in Week 3 against Carolina, $7,500 for unnecessary roughness, kicking an opponent.
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/08/sports/football/08giants.html

It was worse then I thought and clearly based on this he is the dirtiest player of the year so far.

11. I'm a Cowboys fan, but...
Adams needs to go. He has a history of this kind of stuff, and the sport doesn't need it. IMO, these problems will only get worse if the league doesn't start cracking down on these kinds of people hard. If a coaching staff begins to realize they can lose an important player for these kinds of infractions, the problem will tend to get solved at the team level, which (in a perfect world) is how it should work anyway.

12. Per a poll of NFL players
conducted by Sports Illustrated a few weeks ago, Hines Ward was voted number one dirtiest player.
