Alright, smacking Michael Brown in the back of the head is not a bad choice if you're going to smack any footballer. Brown is a nasty little git, but there is no excuse for smacking someone's head with an elbow and this is a very dangerous act.
The incident can be seen here:
The Liverpool's captain definitely did it on purpose, if the FA let this go, it's a joke. Just last week, Gerrard escaped punishment from the FA after he makes V-sign at the referee and told him to "fuck off".
