Cowboys Newman opens big mouth
NFL Football at its best. NFL Football at its craziest.
The return of the Squibster. Now the good and the bad. The good is that my most excellent boss and coworkers filled in quite nicely and that is most appreciated.
The bad is the Squibster is diagnosed with Cancer and undergoing chemotherapy. Fear not, they say the cancer is one that is curable, so let us move forward with our dreams of football!
Look into my steely gaze
Let’s hope he just made a mistake, because here is what Terence Newman said about Jon Kitna earlier this week.
“Basically what it boils down to is you’ve got to watch what you say. Your mouth can’t write checks that your (expletive) can’t cash. That’s what it comes down to,” Newman said. “Everybody’s going to see those quotes. He better just hope I don’t blitz off the edge, because I’ve got 15, 25, 30 (thousand dollars), however much it would be for a fine. I’ve got that much for one fine. Revenge will be sweet definitely.” source
This is the new NFL. You can’t get away with that stuff. Should Newman purposely hurt Jon Kitna, you can bet there will be more than a fine.
“Be advised that your comments will now compel us to carefully monitor your activities in this weekend’s Cowboys-Lions game,” read part of the letter signed by Ray Anderson, NFL executive vice president for football operations. “As you know, flagrant fouls may subject a player not only to fines, but to suspension as well. So conduct yourself accordingly.”
Kitna threw four touchdown passes in the regular-season finale in Dallas last year to end a 3-13 season for Detroit. In an interview the following week with a radio station in Seattle, where the Cowboys had to go for the playoffs, Kitna called out the Dallas defense, specifically linebacker Bradie James. source
Bradie James is obviously excited to face Kitna again, but Newman has gone a little over the top to be sure.
