    I didn't see this posted yet. Kemo was fined 25K by the league. $15,000 for the late hit and $10,000 for a hands-to-the face penalty. Ed Bouchette reported earlier.

    A fine for a hands to the face penalty? Seriously, what is going on with the league these days? What next, fines for holding calls? I wish they had addressed this with the current CBA. Now we're going to have to put up with this until Roger Goodell leaves, which probably won't be for a decade or longer.

    Id fine him 25K just for being a dumb ass!!(you said I can say ass here TTF :-D )

    That would end up being 25K a week. Maybe after a few weeks he would start thinking before he acted.

    I keep hoping he'll trip in front of a bus or something. Maybe God's on our side and He'll smack him with a couple bolts of lightning or something...

    Steelers should take a game's paycheck away from him for every freakin stupid penalty he gets for jumping on the pile half a minute after the whistle :banghead:

    Instead of punishing him after he does something stupid, why doesn't the NFL use his $25,000 to get him a tutor? I work with kids, and I can tell you some people just don't learn in a class setting and need one on one attention. Then can finally learn all the finer points of the game.

    [Kemo and tutor studying film]

    Tutor: Okay Chris, I'm going to show a play now, and I want you to tell me when it's over. Ready?
    Kemo: Ready!
    [play runs, ends]
    Kemo: ..........
    Tutor: ...Chris?
    Kemo: Huh? Wha? Me hit now?
    Tutor: No no, please don't hit me. We talked about this, remember? Hitting is bad.
    Kemo: But Coach say hit good.
    Tutor: Yes, but that's only during a play, remember?
    Kemo: ..........
    Tutor: Okay, let's try this another way. I'm going to say "hike," and I want you to punch this pillow.
    Kemo: I good at punching.
    Tutor: Yeah... Then, when I blow this whistle, I want you to STOP punching the pillow.
    Kemo: I gonna get you pillow!!!
    Tutor: Okay, good. Here we go. Remember to stop when I blow the whistle.
    Kemo: Look out pillow! You stupid pillow!
    Tutor: Hike!
    Kemo: RARRR!!! (punch punch punch punch)
    (whistle blows, Kemo stops)
    Tutor: Very good, Chris, you got it on the first time!
    Kemo: (breathing heavily) Stupid... pillow...
    Tutor: Okay, we're going to do it again, only this time--
    Kemo: RARRR!!! (punch punch punch punch)
    Tutor: Alright, I'm outa here. Tell Mike it's gonna take a lot more than 25K to-- you know what? I'm just gonna pin this note to your sleeve.
    Kemo: I got him, Coach! I got the pillow!
    Tutor: You sure did. I'm not Coach. Bye now, Chris.
    Kemo: You go bye?
    Tutor: Yes, I go bye.

    Exactly.....he has piled on sooooo many times, maybe he'll get it if it costs him, but probably not.

    So, does the guy who got a facemask penalty on Mendy get a 10K fine also? Was Kemo even flagged for the hands to the face? :shrug:
