A little surprised that Ndamukong Suh’s appeal of his two-game suspension was denied. I thought it was deserved, but just didn’t think it would stand.

Because the Lions defensive tackle missed almost the entire second half on Thanksgiving after being ejected, thought they might lop off one of the games. Of course, I’m sure they took that into consideration for the original two-game suspension.

Obviously there are those who think Suh needs to learn a lesson and one of them is Hall of Famer Art Shell who conducted the appeal process and made the final decision.

Perhaps next time Suh errs, he’ll be smart enough to stand up and admit it. I think that would have gone a long way in the way this situation was handled.
