Got away with it? He was penalized 15 yards and will be fined by the league.

Would you like him to be shot for it?

Moss is a punk, and so are you.
Stop motivating him, he doesn't like it.

:D

Moss was lucky he didn't cost his team 15 crucial yards by starting the fight. He should have been penalized and wasn't.

But God forbid we expect Randy Moss to think. :D

to be honest, I dont' care if Randy got fined. He stuck up for his teammate, which is something that I like to see out of Moss. I don't know if Johnson did get fined. I didn't read anything about it.

Randy Moss was fined $5,000 by the league for shoving a Bears defensive back for what he thought was a cheap shot on Nate Burleson . Moss was the only player fined for the incident. - Viking Update

Unreal.

In a shocking :rolleyes: development, Micheal Bennett will miss (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=1894914) two more weeks. He is "The Porcelain" running back.

http://www.startribune.com/stories/510/5015425.htmlThe fact that Johnson wasn't fined for the head-hunting shot is ridiculous.

At this rate he MIGHT be ready for the playoffs.

The ruling, I think, is that it wasn't a head shot. It was intended to be, but Johnson missed his target, and apparently it's only bad if you actually hit the guy in the head. :rolleyes:

I can't wait to see what Will Peterson gets for an actual headshot on a Packer receiver yesterday.

I can't wait to see what Will Peterson gets for an actual headshot on a Packer receiver yesterday.Yet in hockey you can get 2 minutes for a missed slash, due to the intentions of the swing.

Another reason that the NFL officials suck.

Nathan--

Unlike in the Packer game yesterday, when the gutless pukes refused to flag illegal hits by Peterson and another Giant who hit Doug Pederson out of bounds, the officials in the Bears-Vikings game got it right. It's the NFL that screwed it up.

I love how Na'il Diggs got $7,500 for grazing Peyton Manning's helmet with an otherwise legal hit, but there probably won't be a fine for actual damaging hits on Favre and Pederson (the Favre hit was legal...the Pederson hit far from it). Stupid NFL.

Sorry Bruce, I meant NFL officials as in the officials for the NFL, not necessarily the in-game officiating crew.

He was injured when he stepped outside and into the stiff wind on Sunday evening.

This guys got all the durability of a china doll...

Anyone here want to be a running back for the Vikes? (http://www.startribune.com/stories/510/5016103.html) Check the want-ads. Now (HEY!) Moe is dinged up some.

yep, Mewelde Moore will get the start this weekend. Vikings I'm guessing will pass quite a bit.

I think it is safe to see that Bennetts days with the Vikings are numbered. Thats what we get for trusting in a BADger runningback ;)
