ENOUGH WITH THE FINES!!!

I have lost count with the number of fines that have been handed out from Roger Goodell and his office but it has been too much. Lately, two Patriots have been fined for their hits on Favre this last weekend in which one busted open his chin. The amounts are small (only $7,500) and one of the hits was flagged for roughing the passer but the one that actually busted open Favre's chin was a clean hit. Yet Roger Goodell fines him. I'm starting to agree with Troy Polamalu: Why doesn't the NFL consult more than one branch or individual about this hits? Why not have a panel of ex-NFL Players that judge whether a hit is too violent or not? Goodell is not fully qualified in making these decisions and, if this was a government, he would be considered a tyrant.

Then again this issue might be smoke and mirrors with the true story looming in the NFL: the new Collective Bargaining Agreement. What if this set of fines is aimed as a jab at the players for when negotiations heat up closer to the deadline? Perhaps it is a problem created by Goodell so that he can use it as a concession instead of something else. WHY IS NOBODY MENTIONING THIS? Then again, this is pure speculation and conspiracy theory but I wouldn't be surprise if it comes up in the CBA talks. As for right now, FU ROGER GOODELL!!!

P.S. POLAMALU FOR COMMISSIONER 2012.
