Looney said he was playing through the whistle and didn't mean to go low......

Gimme a friggin break man. That's exactly what he chose to do

 

We'll see if he ends up on the fine list this Friday.

 

if he was a smaller guy I can somewhat see doing that but he was the same size, almost, as Williams. Go face up with the guy.

 

That's gotta be one of the worst hyper-extended, non-ligament damaging knee shots that I've ever seen.
