Portis & Taylor's socks

I haven't seen this mentioned here yet and was just wondering what kind of fines they will be slapped with by the NFL? Anyone have any idea how much money they threw away on socks? Also wondering if the Miami over VA Tech game had any impact on our ex-hurricanes? Anyone else have any thoughts?

Re: Portis & Taylor's socks

by now, for those 2...the fines are probably a grand or 2 for uniform violation.

Re: Portis & Taylor's socks

i believe they were fined 10,000 last year but i don't know if that is standard or if that is a repeat offender type fine.

Re: Portis & Taylor's socks

I heard on Charles Mann's post game show, that the fines will probably be in the 10k range because thet also wore black shoes, instead of white shoes, in addition to the socks.

Re: Portis & Taylor's socks

lol getting fined 10,000 dollars for wearing some different socks would really suck. but hey, they are being free spirited, and as long as they can pay the fine, i'm perfectly happy with it.

I'm sure he writes it off, as it goes to charity anyway.

Re: Portis & Taylor's socks

The fine is $10k.

I have no idea why they feel they need to do this. Someone in the organization needs to pull these guys aside and tell them they look like unprofessional idiots.

Re: Portis & Taylor's socks

What was the deal with the socks, anyway? Just a lark? A Miami thing? (did Santana do it too?)
