What a jerk...


Hope he gets suspended for more than a game.

1. He's apologized...
"My reaction on Thursday was unacceptable," the star defensive tackle said in a statement on his Facebook page Friday night. "I made a mistake, and have learned from it. I hope to direct the focus back to the task at hand -- by winning."

I believe he will wise-up. That being said, bring on the suspension. Let Suh be the example to all others.

5. That's his PR response after realizing that his post-game BS wasn't selling.
He has had too much of this for anyone to believe he's "learned."

This incident makes it clear that the guy needs mental health assistance. Just saying, "I've learned," won't change his inability to control himself in the moment.

8. It will take a couple years for anyone to trust that he's changed.

7. I really want to like Suh, because he's so fucking talented.
But he's in desperate need of rapid maturation. This was utterly unacceptable.
