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.

Just Stop: Ndamukong Suh in more trouble for driving

((ht: detroitnews.com))

Really? Detroit Lions Ndamukong Suh is in MORE trouble for his either LACK of driving skill or LACK of concern over driving's "Rules of the Road"?

The answer is apparently yes. Or maybe no

Suh, according to a report from WJBK-TV in Detroit, was pulled over and ticketed Nov. 15th for Aggressive Driving in the Lathrup Village neighborhood.

But....the ticket is under review, because the station says Lathrup Village's police chief is reviewing the language in the ticket and is concerned because the officer involved is an "Aggressive Ticket Writer".

Seriously? He said that? On the record?

This is nowhere near Suh's first brush with Johnny Law when it comes to his driving. He was involved in an October crash on his way to practice and accused of leaving the scene of said crash. Dearborn Police say they investigated and couldn't determine who was at fault. No charges were filed.

In 2011 he was involved in a crash in Portland, Oregon, where he lives. In 2010, someone allegedly crashed into him in a Detroit area neighborhood. In 2009, while still at the University of Nebraska, he hit some parked cars before crashing into a building. He was only charged with negligent driving.

Maybe we are being judgmental, or as Suh said on Twitter this morning, it could just be that we are "Being Haters", but there sure seems to be a bit of a pattern here. Someone making $12 million a year like him could certainly afford to have a driver, because it appears he's struggling with the concept.

And while we won't say he is getting a lot of slack cut to him, it makes you wonder how someone could have so many incidents...and every one of them seem to be either someone else's fault or there's "Not enough evidence to charge".

Yeah right.

Oh, Mr. Suh isn't exactly loved ON the football field either. This past Sunday a wild, wayward kick from him caught Houston Texans QB Matt Schaub right in the family jewels. Schaub isn't happy about it and the league is investigating, but thus far haven't commented.

Suh To Schaub: Rack Me...

And we're going through the whole thing again...

Last year after Ndamukong Suh decided to do some damage to a rival player on Thanksgiving... he apparently did the same thing to a quarterback again this year...

Damage... not an identical injury...

Here's what happened this year- intentional or otherwise...
((HT: NFL on CBS))


"I really don't have anything to say about that play or that person," Schaub said in a postgame scrum.

Last year on Thanksgiving, Suh was ejected for stomping on Green Bay OL Evan Dietrich-Smith and got suspended for two games for that act.

Suh has been fined for damaging Andy Dalton, Jay Cutler and Jake Delhomme in the past...

No word if anything will happen this time...
The HQ thinks it looks a little circumstantial...

Ndamukong Suh has driving issues--Again

Perhaps someone needs to enroll Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh in a drivers ed course. Because apparently, Mr. Suh has no idea how to (a) drive a car or (b) how to avoid hitting other cars.

This statement comes on the heels of Suh being involved in what Dearborn, Michigan police term a "Minor Fender Bender" Wednesday.

Suh allegedly sideswiped someone's Ford Escort on a highway while heading to practice and according to the victim, didn't stop. The victim told the Detroit Free-Press that Suh yelled at him after the incident and after the victim called 9-1-1, scared him off after following him to the Lions practice facility down the street.

In case you are wondering, Suh has a history of car issues. He was ticketed during his senior year at the University of Nebraska after sideswiping 3 parked cars and running into a building. And while that is extremely hard to do sober, he was never tested for "you know what".

Early in 2010, he was a part of a wreck when a Honda Civic hit his Land Rover, the driver of the Civic was ticketed.

In December, he was sued by a passenger in his car in Oregon when he "Lost Control" of his car, hit a tree, light pole and fountain. Again, no impairment charges, but it really makes ya wonder, doesn't it?

Oh, we almost forgot, Suh got a speeding ticket in March for doing 91 in a 55 zone.

Maybe we are being presumptuous here, but it sure sounds like Mr. Suh has a bit of a problem. Or at least needs some instruction. And as a note to drivers in the Dearborn, Michigan area, you might want to keep an eye out for an overly large, Thai-american athlete driving down your street, there's a real possibility that he may run into you.

WXYZ-TV brings us the TV version of this story:

A Man Named Suh... Is He Dirty Now...???

((HT: FoxSports/NFL))

The HQ thinks that the Lions lineman-extraordinaire won't get to shake that label now after the wrestle, emphasis, and stomping of Packers offensive lineman Evan Dietrich-Smith in the 27-15 loss Thursday.

Here's the play that got him tossed...


And his response in the presser...

Suh texter and self-acknowledged boy Dat Dude discusses... and agrees with the rest of us...
((HT: ESPN))


There is no dispute that Suh is ridiculously talented, but unles he can control the anger on the edge of the genius he holds in Detroit... "dirty" will be the only adjective that comes t mind in the short-term...
