In concurrence with Bernard and braxtonkp8497 hitting hard is what this game is all about. In boxing, if the opposing competitor has a previous injury whether it is a cut, shoulder, knuckle, left or right vision weakness, "glass jaw", leg, knee, ankle or something "below the belt"; the injury is targeted and exploited. If it is an illegal act to deliver the blow "below the belt" it is the referee's duty to enforce "fair play" whether (or not) there was an incentive to deliver the illegal blow. If it is allowed as fair and within the rules in real time scrutiny by referees, media and those within the NFL ?
Why are the refs above the investigation?
I would ask Roger Goodell the obvious question, why were all of these "illegal" hits not penalized?
Why were they allowed?
Has anyone else asked this question?
After all it must have entered the minds others closer to Goodell, did they inquire or were they hushed?
