I was therefore interested to see that another ex Rules player had been recruited in Sav Rocca and caught footage of him this week punting and then being hit late and having his helmet knocked off. The commentators were critical of the individual that hit Rocca. Being not too sure of the rules I have a question to those of you that are in the know. Was that hit legal? If not why was not the player penalised?

The footage is here and is called "Rocca's NFL welcome hit".

Yeah that's a vicious attack and at his head. Completely unnecessary. The NFL tries to protect its kickers, punters, and quarterbacks. It was likely not called because the referee probably missed it.

Haa haa. Music Banter is paradise.

I used to watch a bit of NFL when Montana played. He was one of those stars that transcended his sport. Unfortunately I do not watch so much nowadays.

San Diego I saw coming... everyone was hyping them up, it was bound to happen. Carolina I did not see losing, and certainly not in that fashion. Jake Delhomme should really give up on the whole quarterback thing.

I'm praying hope beyond hope for an all-Pennsylvania Super Bowl. I'm smack in the middle of the state and I'd be glad to videotape the carnage.

Bills traded Jason Peters to the Eagles for a first and third round draft pick. Thank god, all he did was demand more money and whine anyways when he wasnt holding out. It does leave another spot to fill which blows, but Its better than having bitches on the team IMO.
