re: #144 William Barnett-Lewis

Excellent! I’ll follow up with one to him myself.

ok, DF, here’s what I sent:

Watching the Chicago/Houston game and chatting over the internet with a good friend, I was highly upset by the illegal hit that took Cutler out of the game. I’m a Packer fan and half the fun of watching a Bears game with my friend is giving him grief. This, however, remains out of the bounds of sportsmanship.

He commented that it might prove to be a real deterrent if the a player responsible for an illegal hit had to sit for the _same_ amount of time that the injured player was forced to be out of the game. I thought this was an excellent idea and that he should tell you so. I also said I’d write as well.

You have an ear at the NFL that the fans do not. Please help us to be heard in this issue.

Thank you.
