All I'm saying is it's not like he didn't congratulate Coughlin at all and it just seems like this is how he's going to be and I just don't see him changing his ways. I don't know that he can be "forced" to do otherwise.
Yeah, he did nothing against any rules, so I am sure he wont catch any heat from the NFL, but it certainly was unsportsmanlike. For as much as this team loves to bitch about people hating on them, to do something so childish just goes to show why the catch so much flak. You would hope that as a dynasty that has won three super bowls they would have some class, and be able to take what they've been dishing out for so many years. It is a discredit to them, IMO. It may not be a serious lapse of judgment with serious consequences, but it was certainly childish. I have no anger or resentment towards him for it. In fact, it was utterly delightful to watch him stamp off the field grimacing. What a sore loser!!
