    Wow :o It just amazes me that the owners are allowing dirtbag Rodger to get away with this blatant abuse of power. They must be ok with it but you'd think they would talk to this camel dung. :shrug:

    Yeah, it's kind of sad that no one has caved Goodell's skull in with a cinder block.

    It appears the NFL is really looking for money to pad their NFL Charities. (I never hear about other teams' players being fined for these types of things. Maybe they just do not publicize them.) Just because it is a penalty that does not mean it is a fine, what's fining someone for being "in the neutral zone"?

    That so bizzare . I never even thought hands to the face resulted in a fine. Hmm. Where can you actually get a list of penalties which turn out being fines as well.. ?

    Woodleys tussle with Jags FB I would have thought would result in a fine even though no punches were thrown. Hmmm

    I'm starting to think it's a magic hat with names that's passed around at Roger's office Monday morning...

    That is true. The owners have to see this guy is going to be the ruin of football. They'll name it PINK BALL before long

    Actually, during the preseason, they did put out an extensive list of what would be fined, and for how much...
    Part of the new CBA, I think,...
    One of our members on the old board, posted it for all to see,
    But I don`t know where they got their info from...
    What a joke!
    Play the game, or don`t!!! :write:
    You can`t "legislate" the hits out of a game, who`s rules are already clearly explained...
    If you don`t wanna hit... or get hit...DON`T PLAY THE GAME!!! :yeehaw:
    Jack had it right!!!...
    "I believe this game is designed to reward the ones who hit the hardest!!!"... :butcher:
    Thats how it SHOULD be!!!
    If you cant deal with it... find another way to make a living! :cool:

    Here you go:
    Gazette Article Summarizing Fines
    which summarizes this released by the league:

    At first everyone thought they can't be serious but as the season goes on it is becoming ridiculous. This does not impact the highy paid veterans as much as it does the young first and second year player who instead of working on developing their skills are working on avoiding fines.
