Juju suspended 1 game - I think he deserved more, but glad he at least got something.

I disagree. Not that Schuster’s hit wasn’t vicious and illegal, and he has been suspended rightfully so. He did the exact same thing that Eddie McCaffrey did in the Super Bowl that we all celebrate. Gronkowkski? He just sucker punched a dude after the play when the guy was laying face down out of bounds. The latter is much dirtier in my opinion.
The part I took issue with was standing over him like Burfict was his trophy kill right before he gets hauled off on a stretcher. The block itself I can excuse.
I see that Juju apologized today, in which case I think the two are mostly on par with one another... They both got caught up in the adrenaline and made out-of-character moves. I think the fact that they both showed remorse matters.
Kind of makes Talibs suspension look like child’s play
Gronk reverts to his dumb guy ah shucks bullshit. **** him and **** that crooked franchise. And eff every mod especially Slick while I’m at it.
Guys take worse hits than that all day long on the football field. It was a dirty, BS, chicken shit hit but the part where you totally lose me is where you suggest that it could have caused grave bodily injury. It just wasn't that bad of a shot.
Moore never played another game.
Hit him in the spine? That's over the top. He kind of gave him a forearm to the back while driving his body on top of him. It was dirty but the idea that you'd put it in the same category is Bertuzzi is absolutely absurd... Also keeping in mind that Bertuzzi continued to hunt Moore long after was reasonable, and Moore already dropped the gloves during that game to give the Canucks a fair shot at him.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that in the realm of flagrant cheap shots, defined as something that clearly goes way beyond the pale of what is acceptable - Gronk's was about as bad as it gets...
But it just wasn't as violent or ferocious as some want to suggest.
