It's pretty hard to sack someone when you get tripped.
Flozell Adams is a got of the Tony Brown variety.

Ocho probably earns more with the publicity.
No he's just a bad ass.
By the way, the fine was actually $50-G's...
Man, I'd love to see one of those O-linemen of The Chargers go & push the crap outta DeMarcus Ware right at the end of the half & see what kinda uproar that brings!! Cuz offensive players can get away with PF at the end of a half!
Plus, we will REALLY see where the apologists are then!
Look at the date of when I started this thread. He was fined 12,500 for when he was a bush league tripper earlier this year, it was bumped because he's a repeat dirty pussy who's too crappy to stay in front of people.
YEAH, Kiwi was abusing him all day, he even bull rushed him & put him on his fat ass!
non-issue
Can we just get rid of Flozell now?
I mean, the er is good for at least 3 penalties every game. Exactly why do we need that?
Flozell.
Actually I've seen Dware recieve a push every now and then after a whistle. I've also seen Dware give an extra push after a whistle. I've seen it with many players after a whistle throughout the league....and guess what...BIG ING DEAL. At most its a late block in the back which should be penalized.
But because of Tom Coughlin's "wah wah wah", its an "issue". In the 80's, when REAL tough guys(unlike Tuck) played, this would be a non-issue. But the NFL is working to really take the toughness out of the game and replace it with pussiness. Much like what is happening here, and like what has occured over recent years with all these rule changes to protect players. Who protected them in the 80's??? No one, because back than it was a tough guy's sport. A man's sport. You never saw players ing about getting "pushed"......Seriously, what a joke this is...
The only reason this is a so-called "issue" is because he tripped Tuck earlier in the season and Tuck subsequently fell wrong and hurt himself. Hey, at least Tuck learned how to fall down this time and not GET HIMSELF hurt.
YEAH, Kiwi was abusing him all day, he even bull rushed him & put him on his fat ass!
First off bro, Kiwi??? Really??? Im not around alot of Giant fanboys, but if I were Kiwanuka, I'd be offended if Giant fanboys called me Kiwi. Sounds like a gay male stripper, which brings to question the quote above your sig??? Hmmmm
Anyway, you mistaken about "Kiwi"() abusing Flo. You must of just watched the highlights on Sportscenter or something, because you clearly didn't watch the game. It was the other way around. Flo didn't give up any sacks. He pretty much owned whomever was in front of him. No one from the Giants D-line abused anyone. Thats why Romo completed 41 passes to a tune of around 400 yards.
Totally off!

Blozell shoved the crap outta Tuck in the BACK, not in his face!
Maybe it would be a non-issue if it was done in the front of Tuck, but that Pussy Blozell pushed him in the back after the half was clearly over & players were headin to the locker rooms!!!
Why do you think they (Aikman & Buck) hardly mentioned it on air!
'Cuz the half was over & PUSSY Blozell had to shove someone in the back ,not the front, while players were headin to the lockers!
Telling His Side
Flozell Recalls Play; Clearly Bothered By "Dirty-Player" Label
http://www.dallascowboys.com/news/ne...2A87EBC52FA996
IRVING, Texas - Never one to hold a press conference or even engage in light chatting with reporters, Flozell Adams had to get something off his chest on Friday.
The Cowboys' left tackle broke his silence this week, trying to set the record straight on not only what happened in last Sunday's game with the Giants that resulted in a $50,000 fine, but this growing perception that Adams is now a dirty player.
"A lot of people, reporters and some coaches have been around long before me and in 12 years and over 100-something games and they start calling me a dirty player now," Adams said in an exclusive interview Friday, just outside the team's locker room. "I'm not doing anything different than I've always done. They can be the judge of whatever they want to say, but I know people in here - teammates, coaches and family - they know I'm not like that. I wouldn't do anything deliberately to hurt another player or take anyone out.
"At my position, I want to give some guys a few bumps here and there. That's how you play. But I'm not a dirty player. I'm not like that because I wouldn't want anything like that to happen to me."
Adams chose not to comment specifically about the fine since he is still deciding on the appeal process. But this is his fourth fine of the season, all stemming from isolated incidents that resulted in unsportsmanlike conduct penalties.
When asked about the sudden increase in fines this year, Adams had no logical answer.
"I don't know. I don't know what the deal is," Adams said. "I've never had penalties like that. Not unsportsmanlike penalties, I've never really had those. Go back and look through the years. When is the last time I've had an unsportsmanlike penalty before this year - maybe like eight or nine years ago. I don't know if you're looking at me differently, but I think people really need to go back and look at the tapes and look at the books before they call me a dirty player."
Giants defensive end Justin Tuck obviously has the biggest issue with Adams, considering he's been on the receiving end of two of the four plays that resulted in a fine, including Sunday's incident just before halftime.
Adams was flagged for pushing Tuck down from behind on the final play of the second quarter. The incident ignited a brawl on the sideline with several Giants players, including defensive end Mathias Kiwanuka, attacking Adams.
On Friday, Adams told his side of the story regarding Sunday's halftime incident.
"The play was still going. At first, honestly - God as my witness - I did not know that was Tuck. I'm going down the field, when you kick a field goal, the other team can return it. As we're blocking, we've got to stop these guys first. After he kicked it, we know it could be returned, so we're running down the field. Now we immediately become defensive players.
So I'm running down the field. I'm running toward the side, I see (Hixon) running. So I'm running and I see a blue jersey, which just happens to be Tuck - God as my witness - I don't even know it's him. Usually when you see a guy like that, they're going to turn around and try to jack you up.
So I see him, I hit him before he hits me. It's still legal, it was a legal play because none of us heard the whistle. If you look at the tape, the ref isn't waving his hand to blow the ball dead until after the play. If you see our tapes, after I hit Tuck, I run down the field a few more steps and then the ref starts to wave his hands. I don't know what the ref under the goal post did, but nobody over by us (blew the play dead).
After I hit Tuck, I'm coming down the field and I see No. 94 coming at me. So, I mean, anyone in the whole entire world who sees someone coming after them is going to fight back. He hit me, I hit him. We both had our hands in the face mask. Next thing I know, the whole Giants sideline is right there."
After the game, Tuck called Adams a "dirtbag" and a "coward." Earlier this year, Tuck called Adams "Bush League" for a tripping penalty that he said resulted in a lingering shoulder injury.
Adams had no interest in trading jabs with Tuck, someone he said he respects on the field.
"He has his opinions of what he wants to say," Adams said of Tuck. "The media made a big deal of the (Sept. 20 incident). That was just a play. Anybody gets hurt. That was a play. I guess he wants to blame me for getting hurt.
"But Tuck is a good player. I don't have a problem with him. I know he's good. Our line knows he's good. The team playing Tuck next week knows he's a good player. That's no secret. It's a tough challenge every time against him. But I have nothing against him. He was just in my way. If it was 91, 72, 58, whoever, I'm trying to make a play."
And despite all the attention, Adams said he's going to continue to make plays. Although he seems aware the league is watching every move he makes, Adams said he can't afford to change his approach.
"I can't be less aggressive. I have to go play," Adams said. "I can't be worried about anyone watching me. I've got to block (Shawne) Merriman this week. He's not worried about me. He's not going to say, 'Hey Flozell, I won't get your quarterback.' I've got to do what I do. I know I'm not a dirty player, but I have to go out and play the way I've always played it."
I don't get the inconsistancey of the NFL and fining players. I consider what Antonio Smith did to Mawae way more dirtier than Blozell pushing Tuck.
Flozell didn't do anything wrong. This is just the NFL going after the best lineman in the league.
