Of course, if you can watch the play and find a reason to not call it dirty, you probably bleed orange. Here is the play:

If that isn't a blatant attempt to injure, I don't know what is. Mike Yeo says Clutterbuck has a "charlie horse" and it is not Clutterbuck's knee, but that should matter little. It was absolutely disgustingly dirty, and could have ended extemely badly for both players. There is a reason knee on knee hits (or even attempted knee on knee hits) are suspended. They can be career ending, and are flat out stupid.
Stupid. Dirty. Not many ways to argue that. Unless Shanahan buys the "I didn't mean to do it" BS again, this has to be a suspension. Right?
