When all they recieve on the field is a wink and a slap on the wrist, it's no wonder they think the criminal justice will do the same. Oh wait, it does.

I believe the NFL is going to deliver more than a slap on the wrist on this one. We'll see.

Also, NASCAR isn't the only televised sport that has some "payback"....

Come on these guyz are AMERICAN HEROS, they can rape, murder, sodomize and they get a free pass. They have been pampered nearly there entire lives, after all winning is the name of the game and second place means your nothing but a loser.

Guy should be brought up on criminal charges. I don't know what it is that makes an attack such as this inside the confines of a stadium or a race track seem to go without notice of the legal system. This is assault, it's a felony and should be prosecuted by the district attorney.

It's not even agravated, shlt, the guy was on the ground with his helmet off. How ******* stupid can that idiot be to do this in front of 100,000 spectators and think it would go unnoticed.

Cris Collingworth said it on network tv last night, the guy should be prosecuted. He'll get slapped with some measily shlta$$ fine and be back out there next Sunday, kicking the shlt out of somebody else.

Great example for all our kids to see this on national tv and then have no implications. People must be held accountable for their actions, no matter what there position in life. This is a good example of why congressman write dirty emails to pages and kids shoot classmates in schools, no friggin accountability.

The sooner we start to address these blatant examples of unacceptable behavior in society, the sooner we will see some change in behavior in our schools and public officials. All these fuchers think they are above the law.

His year should be done - in fact he should be banned from the NFL - Disgusting - the coach should have sent him packing.

From what I know of Jeff Fisher, which isn't much, I think he is a stand up guy. I believe he played in the NFL, as a D back (Da Bears mabey?) and isn't going to let this slide.

I am amazed at how these guys can go at it all game long and end up hugging, shaking hands and all after the game. Most of NFL players seem like good sports. Haynesworth.....NOT!

If they do anything but suspend him for the year, I'll be pissed. I was watching that game and immediately after it happened (before they knew he had kicked him in the face), they showed a closeup of Gurode on this hands and knees on the field. He had blood simply dripping off his face. You couldn't quite tell it was blood at first, I thought he was just sweaty as hell, but then once they showed the replay I thought "man those metal cleats can do some damage, I bet that was blood dripping from his face".

Worst thing I have seen in pro football.

Oh, and I think hockey has a lot more cheap shots than football.

Apparently he barely got away with this one:

http://www.nfl.com/teams/story/TEN/9435285

As for hockey, the fist-fighting is cool as both parties generally engage. And I think on some of the horrible cheap shots in hockey (stick to the face type stuff) they have levied criminal charges.

I'm not a big football fan, but I like the game. Fist-fights, shoving, pushing, etc is all part of the game IMO. The face-stomping is seriously messed up. Why let him ever play again?

If I were in charge (which I am not) he would never play in the NFL again and I would go after every penny he has already made.

Let's see how much money he can make and how much he can get away with when he's a janitor.

Even if the NFL doesn't do squat, Gurode (and the Cowboys) should take the matter in their own hands. Since this is a world in which the only that's respected is money, simply have Gurode claim his vision is permanently blurry (or he's got chronic headaches), and sue Haynesworth for all future earnings Gurode would have otherwise made, plus the financial damages the Cowboys have incurred by losing a player of Gurode's capability. If Haynesworth thinks something like having to pay alimony stinks, wait till he gets the opportunity to pay an entire career's-worth of salary for a fellow professional football player.
