Well - in fairness - this random, irrational, hate-filled SOB does have a point. I mean, Anthony Barr didn't have to continue to play through to the whistle and make sure that the most dangerous quarterback outside the pocket didn't make him look stupid with a juke or a pump fake. He could have sparred Aaron Rodgers' shoulder the brunt of what would be considered a routine hit if it were delivered to anyone else on the field by letting up and ignoring the violent, inhumane nature of a profession that could just as easily be taken away from him if he starts showing compassion on the job. Personally? I would have steered clear of wishing a life threatening injury - by way of a reference that stopped by topical about 35 years ago - on a linebacker that did nothing more than back his line in a way that would have been considered "pussy shit" during the playing days of Darryl Stingley (RIP), but let's not let Anthony Barr completely off the hook here. If he wanted to jeopardize his career by taking a split second to worry about that of someone that's both much more prosperous and protected then he could have coddled and swaddled a vulnerable opponent instead of viciously tackling him during a game of tackle football. Sure, some might consider it a little presumptuous that one disgruntled fan penned a death threat on behalf of the entirety of the Green Bay Packers organization. However, if there's a fan that I want speaking for a franchise then it's the type of bastard that's courteous enough to censor the word "shit" when trying to spell a severed spine into fruition.
