XSV vs. Damage?!
Did I miss something with the game or did Justin pull those late shots, to say the least, completely out of the blue? I know I started watching late but WHAT HAPPENED?   |

EPIC EPIC Bonus balling by JRAB - total DICK move. He shot someone about 20 times in the FACE doing a run through as the buzzer went off. Game was called and he was still shooting......lots. Hope he gets penalized/suspended.
Before the last point, as they were leaving the field he was arguing with a ref like crazy about something, so it seems he had a beef or score to settle and he totally ****ing pulled a Lasoya move.
Prick.

I know! He seemed to me like such a stand-up guy from interviews and such, and not to say he isnt I still look up to him as a player, but wow that was fairly blatant...I'm interested to see the aftermath of this...heheh get it? Aftermath...

The chick in the lavender hat needs her *** kicked. At minimum, some type of suspension.
And get this, TBD cut the classiest pro in the sport and picked up this little *****. Smart move.

Oh no I agree with you totally sir. I didnt look to see if the XSV player was shooting after or in unison with JRab, but with the announcer's countdown they were both wayyyy past the horn there. Like I said I love JRab and i'm interested to hear from him...Nice celly by the XSV player throwing his pack in the stands and all  |

"Lavender hat kid" is Justin Rabackoff, whom many people think is the best player in the sport right now. He obviously lost his cool but he is still a great player.

Refs grab him. A few words exchanged between players. XVS celebrates.

It's happened before, it'll happen again. That being said, that little skit at the end was nncalled for and VERY unsportsmanlike. As someone who could care less who won HB, it was pretty shameful to see that play out like it did. Especially from the team coming in 2nd place... I expect to see that from a lower division, but NOT from a pro. You're supposed to be representing the sport in a good light, not making us all look like whiny chumps...
We'll forgive him and move on, everyone will. Doesn't make it ok, and JRab should be punished for that.

idk, jrab wasnt the only one coming through. one guy came through do bunker the XSV player as the horn was blowing and since other players were coming i would keep my gun up just in case too. the XSV player was standing straight up he just had his gun up...the jrab lit him up so the XSV player shot as well
my opinion. suspend Jrab

Players in all sports let their emotions get the best of them.

The title of best player in the sport is debatable. Regardless of his actions during the finals match he is still a great player. |

Justin is a great player, I'm not exactly sure why he did what he did but it was definitely uncalled (Yes, I know his emotions were running hot) for and deserves a suspension. I didn't really see what the XSV players did, but it looks like the carwash one was retaliating to J Rab. However, I'm sure Steve is going to give him a good reprimanding.
As many of us know, Mike was cut for personal reasons, so that shouldn't be involved in this. |

So, seeing as the NPPL has no rule book this season, what kind of suspension should be expected?

Well looking at the point of suspensions in the first place, he should be suspended, not because the game had passion as that is a great thing to see and experience in my opinion, but rather to make him, and all of the other players think about it next time. Not the most effective way to teach a lesson for all but definitely called for in this situation.

Propst was overshooting to. And I don't think people should lose all respect for him, it was finals of a pro event, they were losing and maybe he thought he caught an unfair call in one the the previous points, he was angry and **** happens, although I think he should be suspended.

I don't think all of this is CJ's, Paul's, and Joey's fault. That was definitely a personal decision on J Rab's part. Everyone on Damage and their staff are great guys and I can guarantee you that they would not approve of this act. |
