Dec. 12: New York Jets assistant Sal Alosi apologized after blatantly tripping Miami's Nolan Carroll on the sideline during Gang Green's 10-6 loss to the Dolphins Sunday.
New York Jets assistant coach Sal Alosi apologized after blatantly tripping Miami's Nolan Carroll on the sideline during Gang Green's 10-6 loss to the Dolphins Sunday.
The strength and conditioning coach was ushered out of New Meadowlands Stadium by a staff member, ignoring interview requests by the New York Post and protected by two security members at an exit.
After the Jets confirmed he was the guilty tripper and the NFL announced it was reviewing the play, Alosi apologized.
"I made a mistake that showed a total lapse in judgment," Alosi said in a statement, adding that he apologized to Carroll and Dolphins coach Tony Sparano. < -- snip -- >

Vick did go to jail, and he was humiliated. This is much different than what Pete Rose did.
Yeah...let’s bring back Matt Jones.
=8-)
Isn't a late hit 4 yards out of bounds just as bad? And they are not as rare as a sideline tripping.
I'll watch it again I guess. It'll no doubt be on all day with so many crybabies.
I didn't see him lean into anything either. Just bent a knee. If he had more time, he may have even....(gasp) taken his hands out of his pockets and pushed the OUT OF BOUNDS player away!!. For that I guess we'd be expected to be calling for him to be hanged.
That was a rhetorical question...because the answer is obvious. He apologized because he did it deliberately and knew it was wrong.
Can you say ray ray 52?
NFL is a pro-Obama s**t and so is the NBA, NCAA and MLB.
Ok I just watched it again. It looks like the coach does a 1/4 turn and shifts his weight to the left foot, while bending that knee.
The only question is, would the player have missed him otherwise, and I don’t think he would have.
A distinct possibility.
“Have you ever watched what gunners do on punts?”
No I’ve never seen a football game in my life, never ever.
“brazen, willful ignorance.”
No, I just don’t think its a big thing or worth crying about.
The NFL is a big boy sport full of thugs. The players should stay away from the other teams coaches and the coaches should do the same.
Next thing ya know players will be getting tackled and quarterbacks sacked.
The NFL is a religion to so many, but its really just a business. The NFL will do anything to protect its product.
Vick is a piece of garbage and the NFL is VERY Pro-Obama. Keep watching and keep supporting Obama.
Well congratulations on not letting people put their past in the past. Most of the rest of the world has employees with records, LOTS of them. In today’s ever expanding government a truly significant percentage of the general population has a record. Then of course there’s the people that never got caught, you probably have some of them.
I didn’t see the trip either, even after replaying several times. Must need a different camera angle.
Nor should he be. His behavior was inexcusable and doesn’t belong in sports where sportsmanship USED to at least be very important. However, don’t care who was playing, winning or losing...what he did was outrageous and he has no place in the game and that goes for anyone else who behaves in such a manner. Period.
At least he “cheated” on the spur of the moment lapse of judgement and out of frustration. No where does it even come close to the disgusting actions of the Patriots’ planning and scheming for years on how to cheat themselves into a couple of Super Bowl victories. MUCH, MUCH bigger stain no matter how you slice it.
And don’t bother, not a fan of either team.
Go ahead and ignore. The NFL is s**t. They pawned Rush, called him a racist, refused to seell the Rams to him and let a shady Muslim buy the team. Keep supporting the NFL and Obama and Vick.
