League to consider stripping draft picks from Pittsburgh Steelers due to melanin

...the Nagger · 12-04-2013, 12:01 PM

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin wants to pay his $100,000 fine and move on.

Tomlin, who was fined $100,000 by the NFL for standing on the field in the path of Ravens kickoff returner Jacoby Jones on Thanksgiving, issued a statement confirming that he accepts the punishment (not that he had much of a choice) and adding that he doesn’t want to talk about it any longer.

“As I stated yesterday, I take full responsibility for my actions, and I apologize for causing negative attention to the Pittsburgh Steelers organization. I accept the penalty that I received. I will no longer address this issue as I am preparing for an important game this Sunday against the Miami Dolphins,” Tomlin said.

It’s easy to see why Tomlin doesn’t want to talk about the issue any longer, although he’s sure to be questioned about it for at least several more months, as the NFL has announced that it will also consider stripping draft choices from the Steelers as part of Tomlin’s punishment. Forfeiture of draft picks will make this a story in the NFL long after Tomlin wants to move on.

Fart · 12-04-2013, 12:32 PM

well they better just stop trying to win lol so they can get a high draft pick.
but NFL said the draft pick deduction won't be decided until after the season basically

Swerve · 12-04-2013, 12:35 PM

That's why head coaches can't be black.

OBV.

...the Nagger · 12-04-2013, 12:38 PM

when bill belicheat did something similar, they laughed and then labeled him a coaching genius

then add in the fact that spygate recieved similar penalties, smh

spygate = standing close to the sideline

Fart · 12-04-2013, 12:40 PM

I believe the refs are also being penalized for not flagging unsportsmanlike or one that has to do with unfair play

Inno · 12-04-2013, 12:43 PM

I knew it was cuz he was black.

And hear I thought I was being racist.

Fart · 12-04-2013, 12:48 PM

that's not nearly as bad as Tomlins tho

Inno · 12-04-2013, 12:50 PM

So now racism comes in degrees art?

Its the same shit man.

Swerve · 12-04-2013, 12:50 PM

Its not even close to Tomlin's. Play wasn't going that way and he wasn't going to get back into it in time anyway.

Fart · 12-04-2013, 12:52 PM

lol i really dont think it has anything to do with race.

Diode · 12-04-2013, 12:56 PM

lmao @ race

lmaololrofl

eddie excuse machine headed into full gear

you gonna use this as an excuseto cancel your bet about the playoffs, too?

racist conspiracy, drone strike, chyeahhh to thread

Swerve · 12-04-2013, 01:06 PM

He isn't cancelling it.

I'm getting my money.

Fart · 12-04-2013, 01:21 PM

lol how much/what was the bet? steelers going to the playoffs?

...the Nagger · 12-04-2013, 01:27 PM

20 that we finish 8-8

he ain't gettin no money I am

and no that's no the same thing, but he didn't get fined for it

he purposely got in his way during the play. they called him a coaching genius for it

mike tomlin stood still and didn't disrupt the play

tell me I'm lying

...the Nagger · 12-04-2013, 01:28 PM

and why is diode even mentioning bets when he owes me to this day exactly $180?

...the Nagger · 12-04-2013, 01:30 PM

and tell me what the penalty for spygate was

uh-oh · 12-04-2013, 01:33 PM

you are lying

he sidestepped into his way

a full 6 yards from where he was supposed to be. on the opposite side of the white line he isnt supposed to be in.

he cost the ravens a touchdown in what was shaping up to be a blowout, and kept his team in it.

i thought it was an EXCELLENT move by tomlin, i think it IS great coaching. i wouldnt be mad at harbaugh if he did it. but thats before i realized what the penalty for it is. 100k is brutal, and if draft picks get thrown in thats even worse

but he can't take back the fact he did it now that he knows the punishment

its not because he's black, its because it was blatant and directly affected the outcome of that play
