A response to President, coach say Miami penalties were fair

Donna Sha-la-la-land is absolutley right. These were fair penalties. I mean after all, if anyone has ever been involved in a scrum ( whether in rugby or for a fumble in football ) you know that the physical nature of those events far exceeds the namby pamby faux violence these would be thugs exhibited last weekend. The kid pretending to stomp on another FIU player was just faking it, kinda like the WWF. And the kid who pulled off his helmet to "stroke" the opposing player in a willful defense of his teammate really didn't hit anything of substance. So why should they suffer anymore than a game, I mean a practice or two would've sufficed, ...wouldn't it?. Really now, are more severe penalties for exhibiting the worst sportsmanship this century ( other than the Tennessee Titans guy who did hit flesh with his stomp ) really in order here? The good folks in the adminstration did watch this frame by frame after all, and had to notice that nothing really bad happened .

Personally I think Coker & Strock should give up a game's worth of salary ( give it to charity ) and be suspended for a game as well. They are the ones recruiting these "high spirited" ath-a-letes. They should pay a price, too...for organizing these shameful shams of violence.
