    IIRC, Jarrod McCracken (maybe?) kneed himself int the face putting up a bomb once, better ban kicking.

    Using that logic, you're fucking retarded, and im not even for the ban

    The first tackle off the kickoff's are going to be rippers.

    Matt Cooper, one of the softest players in the NRL is agreeing with the ban. That says it all.

    And chip kicks make up a tiny fraction of the overall skill. Doesn't mean they're not a huge part of the game. They're enterprising, and amazing to watch when correctly executed, same as shoulder charges. You're on very slippery ground if you start using the argument of overall scarcity.

    Shoulder charges are barbaric.

    The two aren't the same and you know it.

    When a shoulder charge goes bad it is likely going to end in a concussion.

    A chip kick going bad will result in loss of possession.

    Is there any way the players can holdout?

    I didn't say nor imply they were the same. I responded to your argument about scarcity. That and that alone. Your argument about scarcity doesn't suddenly become valid when you choose to introduce, or couple it with, a secondary point. If you want to argue the cons of the shoulder charge with regard to the possibility and severity of injury and so forth, then by all means do so. But you can't simply say, well, it doesn't happen much so who cares? The scarcity of a phenomenon in RL is not an argument against it.

    ITT: MF, in a world first, uses Cevnoing for a legitimate reason.

    Has the IC done anything good so far?

    I searched it and you say Cevnoing is basically tu quoque. What I did in response to 99* is not tu quoque...........even remotely. Pointing out the implications of a principle is not an ad hominem nor is it a red herring, nor is it a logical fallacy.
