Michael Pittman is no saint and probably said something that warranted a quick rebuff but nothing he said could have been any vindication to have someone spit in his face. I hate liking Sean Taylor but it's hard not to. During the course of a game I scan the screen for #21. There's not too many players in the entire NFL that I want to know what they did on every play. He is a mega-superstar and if he could play for the Redskins for the next ten years I know we will be perenial playoff contenders but, brother, he has got to take some control over his actions.

If you don't like the fact that ST did something 'disgraceful' perhaps you should have an interest in a different sport, like chess or polo or cricket, maybe chinese checkers. For crying out loud, the co-comeback player of the year Teddy Bruschi has been accused of grabbing a guy's nuts trying to recover a fumble. 'Win at any cost' attitudes are prevalent in a game where hundreds of thousands of dollars are on the line. The NFL is more of a business than a sport. You want sportsmanship watch pee wee games.
