I must admit, I didn't see the play in question.

Then you should quit trying to excuse it. I did see it, and it was a punk-ass despicable act on the part of Marcus Vick. If Dumervil had stomped on Vick's throwing hand they'd still be rioting in the streets of Blacksburg.

Hokie fans should be ashamed. If it weren't for his last name, Marcus would be back home.

Doubt it. People would be calling Vick a "crybaby" and offering to sew lace on his drawers while reminding us this is football, not soccer. If we penalize players for "stepping" on other players, we wouldn't have any linemen in the game. The first thing I was taught when I played OL was how to step on DL player's foot when they rushed in and how to push them onto a pile.

Cardinals fans should be ashamed, Hurricane fans should be ashamed, Tiger fans should be ashamed, Seminole fans should be ashamed. There's probably not a team in the country that hasn't had a player they should be ashamed of. What's your point?

As I recall, the name 'Druckenmiller' will win you a free pass as well.
