Probably got up, giggled, and said to the guy "wow, that was pretty tough - wanna do it without 20 pounds of protective material like i used to?"

He is a Rocca (or Roke-a!). You could probably hit him in the head without the helmet and it wouldn't do any damage.

That is actually very true. Where his family comes from in Italy, we are said to have harder heads than most.

You must have watched a different clip. Didn't they talk about it being a cheap shot? And finish by saying welcome to the NFL?

There are 2 different clips on YouTube. One is longer and contains more commentary than the other.

Watch the other clip... think it was the first one in the list on the right.
That was a disgraceful cheap shot on a punter who isn't even in the game... and was heading off the park after he'd done his thing for that play. The funny thing is Rocca would have just laughed and asked if that's all he's got. Those guys don't know what a bump is. Someone show them a clip of Lloyd laying
that bump on Chad Cornes. Now THAT'S a bump!
