Idiot on the Sideline.

 During the Miami Dolphins-New York Jets, which most of us watched on Saturday, during the third quarter I witnessed one of the dirtiest moves I have ever seen during a game but it was on the sideline.
 As you may know, during a punt returner, Dolphins Cornerback Nolan Carroll was the gunner and he was running down the sidelines out of bounds. Well when he was running down, he got tripped by the Jets Strength and Conditioning Coach Sal Alosi. This is a pretty big deal because when Carroll fell to the floor, he was down for a little while. In my mind this one one of the worst things I have ever seen in my life. Not only did Alosi trip Carroll but if you look at it, he did it intentionally. He stuck out his knee while Carroll was running down and Carroll hit it and flipped. Now Alosi did apologize after the game when he called Dolphins Coach Tony Sparano, Owner Woody Johnson GM Mike Tannenbaum, and the Jets Head Coach Rex Ryan. Alosi said he "wasn't thinking" and "if he could go back again, he would of taken a step back." Alosi is fined 25,000 and suspended the remained of the regular season without pay.

    Now if I was the GM of the Jets, I would be looking for a new Strength and Conditioning Coach. What Alosi did is inexcusable and no coach in the game should ever think about doing this. What would of happened if Carroll, who has had knee problems in College at Maryland,  blew out his knee. Would Alosi still be the Coach, if he would be the Jets front office should be ashamed of themselves. If it was up to me, Alosi would of been fired at eight o'clock that night. They went to light on him. After a while, everyone will forget about this and no one will remember who Sal Alosi is. If he got fired, everyone will remember he was the idiot who got fired for tripping a player. Also the league has agreed that the Jets gave Alosi enough punishment, they didn't. I would suspend Alosi at least a year without pay and in his press conference to me, it wasn't sincere enough. I think Alosi just wanted people to believe he is remorseful, but if he did regret it he would of never of done it at all.

Zach Taylor, a former Dolphins Linebacker, accused the Jets of forming a human wall on their sidelines. Also, inactive D-lineman Marcus Dixon leaned his shoulder out, preparing for impact. Also, the punt before when Reshad Jones went out of bounds, they were lined up the same way. Did they know that Carroll was going to go out on the sideline, probably not but even though they did this intentionally or unintentionally, it was the worst thing I have ever seen in an NFL Game in my life. I think it reflects the whole Jets organization that a ut on their coaching staff would actually do this. It disgusts me to no end and I hope I will never have to hear the name Sal Alosi for the rest of my life.
