After Raider Big Dick Seymour bitch slapped Rapelisberger to the turf on Sunday, Steeler fans have been crying unmercifully about the double standards in the NFL Fines System. Seymour was only fined $25K compared to Steeler Harrison's fines for illegal hits totaling over $95K over two games. Do they have a legitimate bitch? (...and no I don't mean Ben)

It's quite obvious its bullshit, but I don't really mind. If Seymour wouldn't have been ejected I would have had an issue with it.

Harrison is a multiple offender and known cheap shot artist. Seymour overracted to Big Ben touching him, but can you really blame someone for that reaction if Big Ben touches you with his history of raping people?

I'm more pissed about the BS call on Clark (helmet to helmet contact) that wasn't there, and the roughing the passer on Harrison that was a damn near perfect tackle.

I'm sure the majority of you Cleveland supporters can agree with that.

pretty much. I saw ewok bitching about the calls...something he never does, so I knew it would be worth watching the highlights. I really think there should be some fines levied against officials that make calls that are that bad.

I haven't heard anything about their game grades. That was the first game in a while that I can remember the officials made me thing about turning it off. I was just getting sick of the stops in play over and over and over.

steeler fans whining about refs is comical. Ever since the Emacculate deception and Franco Harris and numerous other favorable calls, steeler fans should just shut up.

Oh, nice shit stir thread. And I see you got some people who agree with you to join in. Kudos.

Anyways, the Raiders are the ones who got the taste slapped out of their mouth on Sunday. 35-3.

35-3 is all I have to say about this thread. Take away the 3 tds they called back and your looking at 56-3.

I couldn't care less about Richard Seymour. I do care that the NFL is targeting the aggressive Steeler defense.

targeting is an undestatement...fine for the shots on the Browns players they smashed......but this past game versus the Raiders was atrocious....I honestly feel the refs should be unavailable for postseason consideration or osme penalty.....awful
