Children sat 10 feet away on the front row and every other other word was laced with profanity on the basketball court in high school, yet we often didn't even a second glance from an official.
Meanwhile, professional sports leagues are fining grown men for swearing on a football field?

One of the dumbest fines, EVER. If I was Kaep id appeal honestly. shyt is stupid as fukk..at the least the NFLPA gotta do something.

But there have been many shytty fines in the past so this isnt new really.

Cromartie fined for tweeting ""Man we have 2 have the most nasty food of any team. Damn can we upgrade 4 str8 years the same ish maybe that's y we can't we the SB we need." - $2,500 by Chargers

The NFL fined Ochocinco $25,000 for two violations -- possessing an electronic device and posting messages on Twitter -- during the Cincinnati Bengals' preseason game against the Philadelphia Eagles on Aug. 20. (stupid to do but 25k?)

T.O. got fined 5k for not having his jersey tucked in.

Mike Tice sold his Super Bowl tickets given to him for being a head coach at the time to a ticket agency..and got fined 100k.

The NFL has been doing stupid arbitrary shyt for years and its just ridiculous. The fact that they issue these stupid fukking fines then have the audacity to claim tax exemption as a non-profit or charitable organization (i forget which) is just absurd.

Thats the thing. Word thru the league is the the mystery word was nikka. At the presser , the first question was "Did you say a racial slur?"

One, if they're going to call it there should've been 15 fines per game on sunday., I'm sure the word is used gratuitously. Second, my reference was to someone using a slur offensively, not the way black people use it with each other...yep, it's hard to govern and double standard, but gtfoh telling me how to talk when I'm on the field being torn limb from limb.

If you told players in the league 20 years ago that hard hits would be outlawed and cussing on the field was penalized, theyd prolly laugh and call you retarded. Thanks, Roger, for this league goin to crap :smh:

I was watching the 70's football clips in the Mean Joe Green A Football Life and the game looks unrecognizable from what is today. If it was like it was back then today, would these casuals stomach these gritty, hard nosed grind out games? None of that wide open passing game, receivers and QBs getting jacked up. The masses ain't watching that shyt. :heh:

That sarcasta-ball episode from South Park I guess is really the future of football.

While I think it's a stupid rule, I don't too much care about Kaep's pockets.

My gripe is that they called a penalty on this and moved the ball back on the 9ers. This is a non-football issue, it didn't give any advantages to the 9ers, and wasn't egregious enough to warrant affecting the game. That's bullshyt.
