The NFL has spoken, and their word is law...also expensive.
What the NFL's logo should be...
The No Fun or Fighting League finally handed out fines to the principles who engaged in the on-field hi-jinks, shenanigans and fisticuffs last Sunday. But none of the fines were too over the top...unless you like to wear orange cleats. In that case, there is no fine which is too over the top.
The NFL's hit list is as follows...
Matthew Stafford: $7500 for tackling (badly) like a QB
while losing his composure (badly).
Nick Fairley: $15,000 for channeling his inner Tony Siragusa,
trying to turn Jay Cutler into a pancake. (Mmmm, panckes...)
DJ Moore: $15,000 by retaliating, becoming the primary reason
Stafford and his inability to tackle turned into a brawl.
(Not like Stafford could have have hit him with a punch anyway,
if you go by his completion %)
Rob Sims - $7,500 for hitting someone after the whistle
during the Moore cause mess. (Gotta be sneaker, Sims!)
Kyle Vanden Boesch: $7,500 for a late hit on Matt Forte.
(Why make a screen cap of the offending hit when you can post the DEVIL EYES?)
Earl Bennett: $10,000 for wearing ass ugly cleats.
(Should have been more, much, much more.
God damn those are horrific! You go, Roger Goodell!)
Also notable was one player whom we all assumed was going to be heavily dinged in the wallet...and wasn't.
Ndamukong Suh: $0.00 for incidentally ripping off Cutler's helmet.
(Goes to show sucking up to the NFL suits in person can pay off!)
Also not deemed worthy of a fine?

Julius Peppers: $0.00 for his dangerously high clothesline hit on Calvin Johnson.
(Sometimes justice is not served...just like on Law and Order!)
I'm sure as I write this, the NFL suits are rolling around in a huge pile of cash. No, not cash from the $62,500 they levied in fines. It's something they do on a daily basis...just because.
Just imagine the cute kitty = Roger Goodell.
I'm sure the NFL does the same with anti-trust lawsuits...
