Earlier this week Tom Penders had the gall to stand up for what Aubrey Coleman did to Chase Budinger's face last Saturday saying that ESPN doctored the video and added the x-ray vision piece to make Aubrey look bad. What really made Aubrey look bad was stepping on Chase Budinger's face and shoulder. That made him look much worse than adding a little x-ray vision graphic.
Whether or not Coleman looked down to Chase there is indisputable evidence that he knew Chase was on the ground, based on the fact that he had just gotten called for a charge. He had plenty of time, 4 steps by my count (5 if you count the one on Chase's golden locks), to stop his forward progress, and I don't know maybe take a step to the left or right. But no, he chose to walk over Chase. Most players will help the guy up, even in a competitive rivalry game, or at the very least not step on their face.
In fact, Penders' account that Aubrey is looking up at the ceiling makes Coleman look even worse. It's like he's intentionally trying to make it look like an accident. No one in their right minds ....
