    Imagine ...

    ... if the US Boxing Federation came out and said boxers need to tone it down a bit, no aiming punches in the head and neck area. Can't have any more of those concussions/KNOCKOUTS any more, it's too dangerous.

    ... or if NASCAR came out and said, those curves are pretty dangerous, need to keep the speed under 60 mph; oh, and BTW, no passing within 2 feet of another car. Somebody might CRASH if new rules aren't put into effect.

    Suspensions not just for the boxers, and the drivers - but for the trainers, and pit crews as well!

    Not that they want to change the very defining nature of the sport.

    (Oh, no penalty for the owners actually HIRE these people, that just can't be done, of course!).


    We got our "6-PACK" - time to work on a CASE!

    HERE WE GO STEELERS, HERE WE GO!

    Didn't they slow down Indy cars?

    I am not sure of the reason, but I seem to remember that back in the 90's.

            Checking from behind which was already against the rules and has never been acceptable. The are now just stiffening the penalties for it.

              A Canadian knows the rules of hockey? I never would have guessed...
              Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

              Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

              We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

              We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.
