Pages : [1] 2 Daseal 12-13-2004, 11:04 PM "Portis and Taylor wore all-red socks for the second successive game. They were fined $5,000 each for wearing them in last week in a 31-7 victory against the New York Giants." 5K a piece for burgandy socks. That's outragous! http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/recap/NFL_20041212_PHI@WAS at the bottom of that article Gmanc711 12-13-2004, 11:15 PM The NO FUN LEAGUE! I'm glad the league had the b*lls to fine EVERYONE. Keep wearing them Portis/Taylor! THe hell with the league. jamf 12-14-2004, 12:12 AM portis and taylor are stupid... they got fined for wearing a different "uniform" from what the team notified the league it would wear. that day gibbs told the game officials they would wear white jerseys, burgandy pants and white stripe socks. they wont get fined for this weeks uniform. they all had the same one. jbcjr14 12-14-2004, 09:23 AM Good, those idiots deserve to be fined. I can't believe Gibbs allows that shizit to go on. The old Joe would make em ride the pine for violating the league policy. MTK 12-14-2004, 09:28 AM who cares, it's the uniform police we're talking about here. I thought the entire team was wearing red socks this week, why are these guys getting fined again? Daseal 12-14-2004, 09:55 AM The entire team had red bottoms white tops, I don't think these two had this. Either way, it's absolutely ridiculous. How many people besides dorks like us would realize, "HEY, THEY'RE WEARING RED SOCKS!" if they were wearing Bronco Orange socks, then I see. Still. stupid. cpayne5 12-14-2004, 10:01 AM It's really no surprise they were fined. The NFL has been doing this for a long long time. MTK 12-14-2004, 10:06 AM It's not a surprise at all, it's still silly but whatever, it's not my 5K. Summo 12-14-2004, 10:12 AM That's what makes the NFL the NFL. They want a professional look and not have a free for all like you have in college. I think Portis and Taylor made the uniforms look like an Arena team. illdefined 12-14-2004, 10:30 AM its the NFL's attempt of keeping the teams, teams and not creating WWF style 'superstars' within the game. they can only use visors to play themselves up. i thought it looked great, Portis looked like a track star, and loved how Sean backed him up. a little shakeup like that now and then is wonderful just like last year's white on whites.
