Hopefully the guys in the stripes will nip this one in the bud to keep it from becoming a trend. Maybe they should have slapped Talib with a bigger fine.

Ouch. That's going to be really hard to spot.

It's a really easy call if you do, though - the player is gone. Hopefully suspended by the league, too.

Very difficult to spot.

Had a high school game a few years ago where the kids from the visiting team were complaining about it, and a few of them had cuts on or near the eye to prove it.  Kept happening at the bottom of the pile, though, so it was impossible to catch anyone in the act.
