We need a new nickname for Williams/Stewart/Goodson

I like it.

I've been meaning to mention this (maybe it's already been mentioned): Did anyone take Goodson's gesture as him simply trying to silence the crowd, and not actually a "throat slashing" gesture? You know, like "Kill the noise," or "Cut the mic"?

you're definitely right. i was just playing around. unfortunately the league thinks there's a difference between putting your finger up to your mouth in a "shhhhh" gesture and a "cut the mic" gesture.

The "Cutthroat" Gesture is performed by drawing the hand, or a finger or two, across the throat. It represents slitting the throat with a knife, and means that the gesturer or someone else is metaphorically being killed. It is rarely if ever used literally to refer to death, though it is occasionally used as a theatrical threat ("I'm going to kill you"). The gesture earned a great deal of national notoriety in the NFL during the 1999 season in which several players did the cutthroat gesture. -- wikipedia.

and yes, i just cited to wikipedia.
