Suspensions Are Fine

Some of the violence on the field is getting excessive. The league continues to fine players for late hits, especially those out of bounds.

Lions DT Ndamuong Suh has been fined $100,000 for his illegal low block on Vikings center John Sullivan during the Lions season opening win last Sunday.

Suh has been repeatedly fined for his excessive physicality. Last year, he was fined $30,000 for kicking Houston QB Matt Schaub. Suh was also suspended for two games in 2011 after stomping on a Green Bay Packer Evan Dietrich-Smith.

Neither the fines or suspension has stopped Suh from being out of control on the field. His playing style is very selfish as he puts his team in a bad position by risking a suspension.

I think the league needs to start suspending players. Most of them make so much money that a fine doesn't really matter. It's only a matter of time before someone gets critically injured.
