co_springs_billsfan Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 This certainly doesn't fit the Pat's* fans' worldview of "The NFL only punishes the Pats*, and when they do punish the Pats* the only reason was jealousy." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are many jobs in the world that ask more of football players and pay far less. There high pay is reflected by having a players Union that represents them with well paid lawyers. The CBA reflects the priorities of both the owners and playes. There is no side to pick. They already negotiated this. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are only a rare few who have the ability. And they get paid big bucks because players get a percentage of NFL revenue. Thus, fans spending money DEMAND the players get paid that much.

blacklabel Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I'm fairly certain they were fined for this a few seasons back. Same reasons too, running padded practices when it was just supposed to be OTA stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried out for a semi pro team several years ago (in my early 20s). I was always one of 2-3 of the best players on any field I had played on, ran a 4.48, but 5'8" 175 lbs at the time. Caught just about everything thrown, out jumped taller guys, very elusive, and would take 2-3 guys (many of them 20-30 lbs bigger than me) to bring me down. I was dominated...there was a 285 lb monster D lineman that ran as fast as me. There was a DB that broke up everything in his direction. Several other guys as good or better than me. None of those guys would ever dream of playing in the CFL, let alone the NFL... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Why are they so dumb? The Seahawks get caught all the time too for breaking the offseason rules. The risks FAR outweigh the benefits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Twice in three years. on NFL Radio this morning they said it may have been a player or staf blow them in,but all teams per league rules are mandated to tape and keep for 30 days all practices. Even the voluntary ones. You’d think Coach Harbaugh would be smarter and not make another mistake and cost him and his owner money. i really like him as a coach and Ozzy as a GM. Tey are better than these bonehead mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
