Brodrick Bunkley kicks Alex Boone in head; fine next?

New Orleans Saints defensive tackle Brodrick Bunkley should be facing a hefty fine or a possible suspension from the NFL after he kicked San Francisco 49ers guard Alex Boone in the head Sunday.

Bunkley committed the penalty on a failed 49ers field-goal attempt late in San Francisco's stirring 31-21 win. The video above doesn't leave much room for interpretation. Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh was suspended for stomping on an opponent last year in another high-profile, nationally televised game.

Bunkley isn't as well known as Suh, and he's not a repeat offender of the NFL's conduct policy. But this was exactly the type of behavior that NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is trying to eliminate. We'd be surprised if the league doesn't come down hard on Bunkley.

Cut the sorry sack of ****. That is som Atlanta Falcons, bushleauge bullshat the Saints should be way too good for.

W.T. Sherman is my favorite General. After all he did order Atlanta to be burned to the ground.

I was thrilled as I could be to see this, not that it was right but looking at our D yesterday and the line up we had ,these boys look like most of them are starting to play with a mean streak, I love it, finally signs of life. Our front 4 looked good,was great against the run and got a respectable push, keep in mind the 9es O-line is made for ground and pound, so for the front 4 to shut their run down says alot, Lofton is someone to build a core around that can punish backs and TE's that hit the mid level. The secondary looked better than they have with their lineup, they gave up a few plays but overall did a pretty good job, overall they player well. NOW for the O, we quit running the ball and went straight to the pass, not good, the O-line got tired and the 9'ers didn't. I blame this on strenght and conditioning, our O had plenty of chances but come up short. I hate we lost, I always do but their is no reason at all to hang our head in a good game like that, it only shows where we need to get better at, I think Payton will correct it all when he comes back.

That wasn't a 'kick', that was more of a foot-slap ... fine him for unsportsmanlike conduct & move along, maybe give him a game-suspension for good measure, but I don't think it warrants more than that.

The team & the coaches can address his lack of self-control in the lockerroom.

Pure frustration by an immature player. He should be better than this and needs to be told that we as a team are. Can't happen again.

It's in the same league as Ingram pointing as he scored last week. First mistake is on you, there won't be a second.

I don't agree. In my book there is a big difference between taunting a guy and kicking him in the head, helmet or not.

Bunkley was so pizzed off. Hey, at least there's a fire in the defense.

Don't get me wrong, it was not acceptable. I don't think it was up there with Suh, just frustration.
