Apparently there is a price for trying to tear off a Pro Bowl running back's head in a game.
FOXSports.com's Jay Glazer reported on this week's FSN's Pro Football Preview that Arizona Cardinals cornerback Antrel Rolle has been fined a whopping $12,500 by the NFL for his facemask of the Chiefs' Larry Johnson in Sunday's game.
Johnson injured his neck on the play and didn't practice until Thursday for Kansas City due to the injury; but he is expected to play against Pittsburgh this weekend.
On the play, Johnson was running free down the sideline when Rolle caught him, grabbed a hold of his facemask and dragged him down and out of bounds without letting go of the mask.
yeah i heard Carl on the raido tonight he said they dont release the amount until the player gets "Offical" Word-
he did say Substantial
and 12,500 aint bad

Who expected to see that on the front page at the start of the season?
Well I certainly did. You can quote me on that.

Of course I said it would probably be a low fine which it was........it's not the 30+ grand alot of people here were wanting.

But not for trying to tear off a Pro Bowl quarterback's head in a game.
The world's gone mad.

I seriously doubt 12.5 k is a small fine Mecca lol that's pretty crazy that's the biggest fine I've seen in quite awhile.

When you are making $3 or4 million a year, $12,500 ain't much money. Should have been at least 50K.

About friggin time. 12.5 isn't much in comparison to his salary- but in the scope of fines these days it is substantial. Of course he will probably appeal.

Oh, yeah, you nailed this one. Only twice more than your upper limit.
I doubt it's more than the 5 grand that's pointed out right there......if there's a fine at all.

12k is a lot of money...even to people with money.
"if this was a Chief getting fined this much, ther would be tons of fans here complaining about the amount"

Decent sized fine but it is not surprising since this was his second fine in 4 weeks.

Told you so. Not a question of will he be, more like how much and when?

Rolle is a repeat offender. He's already broken Shaun Alexander's foot with a horse collar this season.

I guess the only people this is a shock to is vailpass and Mecca. Especially with the fact that he had a horse collar fine earlier in the year. But hey, we are just whiners and the experts didn't agree with Mecca.

Who would've ever predicted that? Amazing.

Are you sure that's how much he makes? Or are you just taking a guess? I'd be curious to see exactly how much the guy makes this season.

Should have had a 1 game suspension as well.
Send notice to this type of play. 2nd offense.

I think that is more appropriate. I am still very disappointed to know that anyone can do anything to our franchise players and nobody on this team will step up and do anything about it.

I'm just glad they recognized the play as dirty and fined his ass. That was a sure TD if Rolle hadn't played dirty.

i guess 12,500 is better than the high-fives that Geathers got. :cuss:

I don't think it was a sure TD. He could have easily just shoved LJ out of bounds.

Now, now, Geathers didn't try to rip Trent's head off, he was only trying to smash it into the ground.
Not that there's much difference but apparently the league thinks so.

Small fine when you compare it THE FAT CHUNK of money he's getting each yr.

the fine was more like the cream on ole axe wound I am sure the vagina will flair up once porter gives a little shove to huard going out of bounds.

True. It barely cuts into his bling budget, Ms. KChiefsQT. But, at least it's something. Many thought that he'd get a pass.
I'm very happy with this decision by the league. But, I think he should have gotten waterboarded, too.

Woulda been a sure td in that LJ coulda punched it in easily on the next 2 plays instead of that behometh of a running back we had to use... :shrug: :D

that is probably money paid post taxes.. so, 12.5k is probably more like 16-18k
