Andre Johnson, Finnegan ejected for fighting
Andre Johnson was ejected in the fourth quarter of Sunday's Week 12 game against the Titans after throwing punches in a scuffle with CB Cortland Finnegan.
Finnegan, as his wont, was playing dirty. The two players got into a shoving match the play before, and Finnegan took a jab to Johnson's face coming off the line. Johnson responded with a couple of haymakers, and both players were given the heave-ho. The Texans did a nice job of moving Johnson around all game, and he finished with nine catches for 56 yards and a touchdown on 11 targets. Johnson has a tough matchup at Philly in Week 13.

Um its even worse he threw cheap shots in a fight like that. The fight was over something petty and during a public game. How ridiculous and tragic would it be if he had seriously hurt the player over something stupid and in a non-dangerous situation.
The only time you could say a cheap shot was ok is if you were in a legitimately dangerous moment and needed to protect yourself.
