Ok, I am not a T.O. fan but this is becoming rediculous. READ (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=ap-tofined&prov=ap&type=lgns). The NFL is so stupid and they need to get their heads out of their asses. I can't believe how stupid they are to fine T.O. over that celebration. Its rediculous.

I've not seen what he did, and seeing as there are probably biases for and against the involved parties I'm sceptical that I'm getting the whole story, but as far as I can tell there's no reason to fine him.

T.O. touchdown celebration that caused him 7500 bucks. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKFP4g5IH6A)

Wow. He got fined for using the ball as a "camera"? I don't follow the NFL, so it really isn't of any consequence to me, but seriously, that was like a 3 second celebration. I was under the impression that the NFL cracked down on celebrations like <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPt0n9--wNE">this</a>; I can't believe they lost their rag over Terrell Owens' - that's totally anal.

Having said that, I don't know why NFL players need to showboat like that. I don't see the necessity of making a performance out of point-scoring, I think they should take a leaf out of the book of rugby.

hahaha that's awesome. I don't like TO but that was awesome.
Oh and Face, he was making fun of the recent "cheating" scandal going around the NFL in regards to video taping play calls on the sidelines.

Ah, that explains things a little. But I still think it's over the top from the NFL and the players. :p

Like I said, I can understand them throwing an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty which they did, but to fine him over that is stupid. I think they should just let em have some fun. Hell far.
