There is a poll on SBI for what punishment (if any) Cichero should have gotten for his elbow on Dichio...Ives stated he doesn't think it deserved the extra game suspension....

All suspensions in this league seem harsh to me, so I can't judge.

I think players need to be aware of the kind of contact they are making and should face harsher punishment for hits to the head.

So if there was a bad, but accidental, hit to players lower body... I would say red card and just the one game.
If it's a bad, but accidental, hit to the players head... red card plus additional game suspension.

Head injuries are serious business and players need to be cautious.
Just look how they are cracking down on hits to the head in hockey.
No reason why they can't take a similar stand in football.

btw... I am talking about ugly bonehead tackles and such... not your everyday knocks to the ankles and head

I think a red and a 1 game would have been enough

I don't think he deserves a suspension. It wasn't intentional.

How the fuck do you know?

Lot's of fucking handicapped Redshit homers on that site, that piece of shit Venezuelan mother fucker deserves that and more. I was hoping for Harmse to fucking destroy him.

The thing about that tackle was that had he not been going against Dichio who's just recovring from a concussion, i don't think Chichero would have made the challenge.

I'm not sure I buy that. He's a competative player, I think he would have gone up for the ball regardless. Difference is on just about any other player his arm would have cleared their head.

I'm confused, by that account the elbow would have been more tollerable had Dichio not been coming off a head injury? Honestly the head injury is irrellevant, just that it was an elbow to the head deserved the suspension.

I'm not convinced that the extra day was appropriate as I'm not sure it was intentional but I agree with flatpicker, the league definitely needs to take a serious stance on blows to the head.

Dichio looks as though he is through for the season. Like many pro athletes who have had concussions, he came back too soon from his injury. If he doesn't stop all physical contact for about one year, he will eventually get dizziness and headaches from a passing mosquito. Says something about the quality of the TFC medical staff: they should have known better.

I saw Dichio last night coaching kids as part of his soccer school. He looked fine although obviously there was no physical contact involved... He was running around and seemed pretty normal.

Hopefully he was just taken off as a precaution...

Carver confirmed it was just as a precaution, although he also said that Danny was having some headaches after the elbow.

I think the extra game was unwarranted. There was no intent, it was just sloppy.
