Dominic Raiola flips the bird? Shouldnt Lions fans do that instead?

Raiola flipped fans the bird after the Lions game saying he was sick of the heckling and will not apolgize for doing it. He said he wished he could give his address, I guess he thinks he is tougher in his driveway than he is on the field.

I am okay with him flipping the bird and not apologizing....the question is shouldnt he apologize to Lions fans for being part of the worst offensive lines in the NFL? After all only him and Backus have stunk the line up for 8 years. Time to put up, he has cashed checks apparently forgetting that us fans pay big money and Lions fans are sick and tired of guys like him failing and then hating on us.

Should he apologize for the bird or for the really bad blocking?

Update:

St8....I am not blaming just him...and yes I do blame Millen...he drafted Raiola! It isnt just him, they have a team full of guys to blame but fingering fans then suggesting he meet them at his house? Total lack of class! And by the way...if he fights like he blocks I guess I am not worried about him hitting me!

    bad blocking definetly. fans are just upset, they payed for season tickets and now have to watch their team lose every game.

    There's no way you can blame a single player on the lions, being a lions fan my whole life they're just not good. No player is more deserving or less deserving of blame. If you want to blame anyone it was Matt Millen. Drafting 4 Receivers with 1st round picks and only have 1 left to show for it........ Its going to be a long time before the lions start winning games. but I CANT WAIT GO LIONS!

    He has been on a losing team his whole career and knows that it is winding down. 8 years of the same thing. It has to be a hit to his pride as all these guys are professional athletes and if you are on the worst team in the league, it makes your "stock" look bad. Most of these guys won't be in the league in 2 years. Every game/season is put on the NFL resume. He even questioned why people still come to the games!

    I think that is really rude! Like [no offence] the Lions stink-- so they should be nicer to thier fans!

    Also the Lions stink so the fans show flipp off the plays -if anything- NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND

    NO, I think that he deserves more respect and fans should lay off the best person on the team

    he obviously has "im 15 and mad at my father" syndrome. He should grow up and act like a professional, that is what he is, and i use that term loosely.
