Thornton should get the year just for the shear stupidity of the play. Great hit by Orpick, there was no need for him to fight. Thornton was pissed and being useless and pissed is a bad combo. Give him the year. Second punch definitely landed and did the damage, Orpik will be fine.
Part of me loves what Neal did, so dirty and cheap but awesome on some level. Again a dumb play and he probably gets 3 for it.
