TAMBA HALI and BRANDON FLOWERS FINED
Chiefs' Brandon Flowers, Tamba Hali Receive Fines From The NFL
Typical Kansas City Chiefs and Oakland Raiders game last week. We've received word from the league office that at least four players were fined in the game, including two Chiefs. We'll start with the bad guys... Raiders LB Aaron Curry was popped for $10,000 after an unnecessary roughness call for hitting a Chief late. This play came on the Chiefs first possession of the second half. Raiders CB Stanford Routt was fined $7,500 for hitting Chiefs RB Jackie Battle out of bounds. This came on the Chiefs final drive of the game (when they were up 28-0). And for the good guys... Chiefs CB Brandon Flowers was fined $10,000 for his touchdown dance in the Black Hole but I don't think the fans would want him to change what we did. The specific violation was using the ball as a prop. Chiefs LB Tamba Hali was fined $15,000 for hitting the quarterback below the knees. He received a penalty for this during the game -- it was Carson Palmer's first pass. |

I won't say "I told you so." I have far too much character for that. I'll just say "I tol' you so."

No one says the hit wasnt an illegal. Its a stupid rule. You say its a cheap shot. The Fine does not mean its a cheap shot. Hali is not that type of player. If not for your short-sighted stupidity, you'd see that...

Its not just Hali, but he is one of the better pass rushers so he tends to get the short end of the stick more often than not. Look at it this way... if players like Hali got more of those calls, offensive linemen would have to be sneakier in their efforts and players like Hali would be getting 20+ sacks and injuring quarterbacks in the process. Thats the opposite of what GODell and the league in general want. They want an offensive league that is family friendly (selling tickets and rights are a lot easier to do when you are selling to whole families of 4 rather than a couple guys) Remember, its not just a sport, its a television show and they are just trying to protect their product and their product is the leagues quarterbacks and scoring. It sucks, but its the raw truth that they will never acknowledge. |

Well if Flowers and Hali were on this board I'd rep them to help make up for the financial loss...

Flowers' fine was worth every penny.
Both were undeserved, though. |
