I have issues with both those expressions...

"It's only illegal if you get caught" - No its still illegal even if you don't get caught.

"If you ain't cheatin' you ain't tryin' - No, you can try without cheating

You can have issues with them. You have heard them both though, because they are used time and again. It's not a discussion on right on wrong, at least not on my part.

Fact is, there is no context in what Jenkins said on the receiving end of his twitter comment, and yet everybody wants to hold him accountable for something. For what, exactly?

I think he said he wan't talking about the dirty play. He said, "I love the way Suh plays... The stomp was a lil much but everything else is what u are supposed to be like."

So what part of that is he being strung up for? Frankly I like the way Suh plays, and yes I agree the stomp was a little much, but I like his intensity. So I agree 100% with Jenkins. And further I think BOTH our o and d lines would be wise to play with a similar intensity.

Now that's just my .05. The mob will have their say.

Well to say the stomp was "a little much" irks me. It was a LOT much.

And Suh's had the dirty player rep for two years now, and Jenkins states he likes the way he plays. To me, and perhaps I'm reading too much into it, that means Malcolm is OK with his overall style of play.

I read that as Malcolm admires players who play dirty.

To me I read that as Malcom admires his intensity. I guess my point is nobody knows what he meant, and I've yet to read where anybody has asked him.

We don't know what he meant, or at least "I" don't know what he meant, and until I do know I'm going to reserve any judgement. I don't think Jenkins is even remotely close to being a dirty player, so I am able to give him the benefit of the doubt.
