Per Twitter: @Jay_Glazer I'm reporting the NFL has fined Falcons head coach Mike Smith $15,000 for his confrontation with DeAngelo Hall

Haters, your time starts.....now.

Why? Hall may have ran his mouth but he did not grab or put his hands on anyone. The worse thing they can give for talking smack is 15 yards last time I checked.

^ i personally didn't think he should be fined, but thought he would is all

I know I've never been more embarrassed as a fan, both because of our owner, but also, and even more so, because of the fans who think that riding a media frenzy against our team somehow does anything other than add to the media embarrassment our team already is.

The fan base here is sick of the bullshit and his side kick. This isn't Jacksonville. I'm not saying it's right but I understand it. After Gibbs 1 left we had some losing seasons but you didn't see the hostility towards MGT cause we knew that the people running the team has a plan and were capable. The fans in Atlanta will never get up enough money to pay for Smith's fine, just like the fans here will probably never raise enough $ to put up ads on the buses.

I don't like Hall but I don't see him getting in trouble off the field. Pac Man Jones is a thug, Hall is just a punk.

I wonder if in the course of making their determination they were limited to just sight and not hearing. The incident was one of provocation.

I do find it funny that Hall wasn't fined at all, while Smith drew the biggest fine. It's not surprising though when you take off the Hall hating glasses and look at the video objectively.

Plus with Smith I think Goodell needed to send the message that coaches have no business mixing it up with players like that.

Nothing for DeAngelo Hall, $15,000 for Atl coach Mike Smith. Jeff Fish, the Falcons' director of athletic performance, has to pay $2,500

I thought Fish should have had more, since he laid hands on Hall, but that's probably a sizeable sum for him? I don't have an idea what a director of athletic performance pay range would be.

I agree. I think both Smith's and Fish's fines should have been bigger. Goodell could have sent more of a message.

No feedback from the anti-Hall folks? Interesting.
