Makes no sense to criticize Mike for his effort, if only due to the context of the comments. What's bush league is an on-side kick with your team down by 2 scores and a minute left. Massive collisions, limbs twisted in every direction, etc. etc.
If a kneel down is a "professional", gentlemanly NFL play, it's the only one.
How about if a team in possession at the 2 minute warning is leading, let's just end the game and let everyone go home.
Let's hear what Herm Edwards has to say about it.
