If a move is legal in baseball, there's no way in hell it should be illegal in football.

Where is that legal in baseball?? That's spiking and not legal in baseball. You don't see guys feel flying up in the air hitting guys in the thighs. You can slide in hard but if your spikes are up there is gonna be a brawl.

But is it against the rules? I haven't watched too much baseball in the last few years so I don't know for sure, but last I knew there was nothing illegal about it. Of course it's crossing lines and your teams best player is going to get a fastball in the back as payback, but I don't think there's anything in the rulebook against it.

Against the rules? No. But if you slide in to a bag like Brady slid there your either expecting to get hit the next time you're up to hit or your teammate will get hit next pitch. Just one of those unwritten rules. This coming from a college pitcher too.

Bradys slide, to me, was definitely intentional. I don't see how you could consider that unintentional when he's staring at the guys leg as he slides.

Re bold: Yeah, I know, that's what I said.

I don't know if it was or wasn't unintentional, and I don't really care. I don't know if it is/isn't against the NFL rules; it's just of my opinion that it shouldn't be.

 
I guess I just think it's crap where because it's Brady, nothing gets said, but Suh gets vilified. I know Suh's not Mother Theresa, just not keen on a bit of a double standard...

 
Brady already has a rule dedicated himself, of course he isn't going to get called for that. It does look like he is aiming at Reed's leg/knee.

I think Suh is unfairly vilified. Then again, some of his off-field (car) incidents are head-shaking and you can see why he's lost the benefit of the doubt. Other than that it's a lot of whining and a lot of jumping to canned characterizations.

Sorry, but, isn't plenty being said about Brady's leg? I mean, we are talking about it, aren't we? It's on the ESPN NFL front page as well.

Plenty is being said.

I, like the rest of you, am a big fan of Suh, but everything that he has been "vilified" for is worse then what Brady did.... Having said that, I also think that Suh has been treated unfairly by the public/media eye, but that is how little I think of what Brady done....

 
I was wondering how many late hits or roughing the passer calls my Ravens would get on Tom Brady. Obviously it wasn't much. I still can't believe he thinks that his season ending injury against KC a couple years ago was intentional. A player will go after the qb till the final whistle.

 
So how many of the Brady didn't do it on purpose people are started to maybe think differently??? Brady actually called Reed to apologize. Doesn't sound like someone who is completely innocent.

 
Uh, I'd apologize if something like that happened whether I intended it or not. You'd apologize to 100% of the people you bump on the street, not only the ones you meant to shove, right?

Did you reed Read's response? ;)

I just hate Brady, and think he's a self centered butt plug...
