I'm going to step aside from this debate, as good as it is, because I'm three steps away from comparing our government and authoritative agencies with the Taliban.

Minus the torture and killing, that is.

By the same token awhile back Favre was fined because he made a throat slashing sign. Wonder why there wasn't a big debate over that.

True. Moss WILL get more attention for the things he does. Can't deny that.

Moss got what he deserved: a fine.

But I'll be honest. I laughed when he did it.

It was humorous, and in hind sight (pun intended) it was aimed at a group of animals who deserved it.

The Favre thoat slashing was against an NFL sanctioned specific rule regarding gang related gestures.

I think it's time for Randy Moss to step up the the plate and act like what he is to a very large group of young and influential fans, a sports hero. Is the example he set the one we want our young athletes emulating in their respective sports? How proud his parents must be?
