A Lack of Professionalism

I don't know if you saw the game or saw it on the news; but we watched Thursday Night Football last night, the Cleveland Browns vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers.
With just a few seconds left on the clock, the teams got into a punching fest with one player taking off the helmet of another and hitting him with it. One player kicked another player that was on the ground. The entire game came to a halt as players were fighting each other.
I've never seen such unprofessional behavior as I saw last night. They were acting like a bunch of 5-year-olds...actually 5-year-olds are better behaved.
Did you see the game or the news about the incident? What did you think?

I don't really watch American Football unless hubby turns on a game. I've seen fights in hockey, which seems common, but not in American Football.

@lovebuglena The teams were fined $250,000 each and several players were suspended.

It all happened right at the end of the game. There was mass confusion. I know they had a penalty; but I'm not sure how many they ejected. Probably the guy that started it. There were two others that really were out of control.

@CarolDM The commentators said this was the worst they had ever seen.
