Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

What do you think that the league will do to Albert Haynesworth? After stomping a player during a dead ball while that player is laying on the ground, he should face criminal prosecution. I know that he won't but he should.
Do you think that the NFL office will make a point or slap his wrist with a fine?
He should not only not see action again this season but he should never be allowed to put on a uniform in the NFL again. What he did was wrong on so many levels and I agree, he should also face criminal charges.

I have had the distinct bad luck to have seen a face that got stomped in a fight. It looked like hamburger. The injured player won't be playing for quite some time.
I love this "ban him from the sport" talk. These guys are paid to be hyper-competitive. Especially for a big defensive player. He is supposed to use his anger and emotion to intimidate and strike pain into his opponent. With these guys' average IQ hovering around 100, they can't be expected to make the greatest decision. With his temper flaring, having been beaten up all game long, his emotions got the best of him and he did something stupid. Yes, it was a terrible thing to do. Yes he should be suspended. But to remove a man's means of making a living because he, raging with the emotions he is paid to reinforce, made a mistake is absurd.
Superintendent Chalmers: "Thank the Lord"? That sounded like a prayer. A prayer in a public school. God has no place within these walls, just like facts don't have a place within an organized religion."

What he did was a criminal auction. He is a low life punk. He lifted his leg and did not accidentally kick the guy or land on his head. He intentionally smashed his foot against the guy's face. Then, to boot, when he was confronted about it he threw a fit claiming he was innocent of the entire thing. He even yelled at his coach. The guy is a walking, talking thug. The guy wants to be a thug - let him go be a thug on the street. Not get paid millions of dollars to be one on the field.

Do you defend all employees that go "postal" or just football players? His actions went far beyond the scope of the game. IMHO you can't use the anger in the heat of the moment excuse. It looked very premediated to me. Albert walked several steps to get close enough to do it.
