Re: ochocinco fined $20,000
Roger Goodell has also been criticized for his overly-rigid attitude towards players. First he took away the ability for players to celebrate touchdowns with props and just recently he fined Chad Ochocinco for pretending to offer an official a $1 bribe.
it's like wiki was reading my mind

Re: ochocinco fined $20,000
Personnaly I think he tries to immitate TO.
But as far as the NFL applying some type of disciplinary action to a professional athlete that "fakes a bribe to an official" is appropriate. What would happen if he were to wave money in front of a judge? (not that that is an exact analogy). And if the league does nothing, what's the next "fake bribe"...100$, something even more inappropriate. Don't get me wrong. I love'd the fun bunch, the smurfs and all the end zone celerabrations of the past but pretending to bribe an official is very different than celebrating a good play.

Re: ochocinco fined $20,000
If you take out any personal biases or agenda you have against Ochocinco then how can you justify a $20,000 fine for his action?

Re: ochocinco fined $20,000
Well, he's hitting the cap for about $6.5Million this year so for him I doubt $20k has much of an impact financially.
So the real question (I'm assuming) is whether or not $20K is an appropriate fine? Not the fact that the action should result in a fine....?

Re: ochocinco fined $20,000
By this fine, I meant the specific fine charged to ochocinco( aka 20k). I never said a fine was right or wrong. So booyah.
And read my first post in this thread as to why I think 20k is more than fair. I have nothing personal against him at all. Anyone who brings money to the ref like that should be fined. The fact it was a joke doesn't matter.

Re: ochocinco fined $20,000
I think having the $1 bill on the field was entertaining but, saying in an interview that you were bribing the officials was dumb. He obviously didn't do that. He should have been more clever and said he made a bet with BAL defense that CIN would win.

Re: ochocinco fined $20,000
Good luck to Chad. I hope he doesn't ever have to do the coin toss. After all, if he hands the coin back to the referee they might fine him another $20k.
And as far as this weekend goes, I think excessive celebration is handing a cheerleader two balls, not one... |

Re: ochocinco fined $20,000
20k is nothing. Bud Adams just got a $250,000 fine for this

Re: ochocinco fined $20,000
I'm not sure that trading one stupid name for another stupid name is a step forward, even if we disregard the basics of Spanish grammar.

Re: ochocinco fined $20,000
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell told Adams of the fine today. Goodell was at the game and sat with Adams for part of it but was reportedly sitting in the stands among the fans at the time that Adams flipped the birds.
^accordig to pft.com maybe it was worth it?
