ICYMI: Ndamukong Suh Wins Appeal Will Play Sunday

Detroit Lions walking fine Ndamukong Suh somehow got his one game suspension for stepping on Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers overturned Tuesday evening.

Suh had appealed the suspension, which would have kept him out of the Lions wild-card game vs. Dallas. In his appeal he claimed his feet were "Numb from the Cold" and he couldn't tell if he was on the frozen turf in Green Bay or not. In lieu of the suspension, he will pay a $70,000 fine.

Uh...yeah.

Suh has a history of after the fact silly things like this. Yes, he made it through the 2014 season without incident but he's been fined and/or suspended several times for offenses similar to this one.

The move will help the Lions as they face the powerful Cowboys offense led by the NFL's leading rusher, DeMarco Murray on Sunday.

Aaron Rodgers Meets Aaron Rodgers--Sort Of

Ever wonder what would happen if Aaron Rodgers met someone who looked an awful lot like him?

Well, okay, actually since we aren't Packers fans...especially after they stole a win from our beloved Miami Dolphins last week, we really never thought much about it.

But the fine folks at NFL Films did think about it.

And produced a video of Rodgers meeting British comic Tom Wigglesworth a.k.a The Amazing Mr. Wrigglesworth (must be a British thing). Which although we are stereotyping a bit, the video is pretty funny. Especially when he tries to sell people in Green Bay that he's the real Rodgers...

The video is long. 10 minutes worth, but if you need a good laugh on a Thursday morning...

Then this is for you:

49ers Call in The Nature Boy to Fire Them Up

((ht: pfz.com))

Woooooo!

Football teams will sometimes use some interesting tactics to get their players fired up or motivated for a big game.

With that thought in mind, as they settled in on Saturday night before Sunday's NFL Playoff game vs. the Green Bay Packers,  the San Francisco 49ers decided to bring in someone who excels at firing people up.

That someone: None other than Pro Wrestling Legend "Nature Boy" Ric Flair….




The team flew the Nature Boy up from Charlotte to Green Bay to get the 49ers "Stylin' and Profilin" knowing full well that "To be the Man, you gotta BEAT the man"….or in this case Aaron Rodgers of the Green Bay Packers…

Check out this quick Instagram Video of Flair's entrance music hitting:
