VA Husker Fan Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I just tuned into the Rams game for the 4th quarter, and Richie is getting a lot of attention, which an offensive lineman rarely wants. Sounds like all game long he has been taking cheap shots, especially on kicks. Constantly hitting and poking people as the play ends and often after. Siragusa and Moose Johnston are really laying into him, calling his play dirty. He just got a 15 yarder, to possibly take the Rams out of field goal range, for mouthing off to the ref, even as his teammates try to shut him up. Josh Brown bailed him out, hitting a 49 yarder to win. Callahan did one thing right getting him out of here. They're also saying he'd better watch out if a pass gets picked off, some defender is going to take the opportunity to lay him out. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 He's a moron and I'm embarrassed to have him as a player on my NFL team. Quote Link to comment

Ohio Pete Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Rams' Incognito fined for verbal abuse of official, penalties Richie Incognito's alleged actions in the St. Louis Rams' first win of the season did not go unnoticed by the NFL. The league has fined the Rams offensive lineman a total of $35,000 for multiple offenses allegedly committed during the Rams' 19-17 victory over the Washington Redskins in Week 6. Incognito, penalized three times during the game, was fined $25,000 for repeated verbal abuse of a game official; $5,000 for a major facemask; and $5,000 for a chop block. Referee Walt Coleman issued a 15-yard penalty against the Rams after Incognito allegedly berated officials while St. Louis was driving deep in Redskins territory. The penalty turned a potential 34-yard field goal into a 49-yard attempt, which kicker Josh Brown converted on the last play of the game to give the Rams their first victory of the season. Jim Haslett, making his debut as the Rams' head coach, spoke at length with Incognito this week about controlling his emotions. Haslett also took a measure of responsibility for Incognito's actions, saying he had encouraged the offensive line to play with an attitude. Those other guys might have needed a pep talk, but telling Richie to play with more attitude is just pouring gasoline on a bonfire. Quote Link to comment
bbhusker Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 I don't know how many times I have thought about what it would have been like having Richie at NU when the D-line was Wistrom, the Peter bros, and Tomich. Richie would might have learned to control his temper the hard way, during practice and after. Quote Link to comment
