Johnson (or Ochocinco, if you prefer) pretended to slip a dollar to one of the refs this past Sunday. He did it as a joke. The NFL didn't find it funny and levied a $20,000 fine.

I'm certainly not an apologist for Chad Whateverhescallinghimself (I think he's a clown) and in the aftermath of the whole Tim Donaghy debacle in the NBA, I can understand being a little sensitive, but seriously? Fines of 20 grand for this, and likewise 20 grand to Jay Cutler for essentially hurting a ref's feelings? Sheesh :sosp:

I agree the fine is BS,

I don't have a problem with Chad, clowns are suppose to be funny :party:

The NFL needs to pull that giant stick out of its ass

I think Stallworth got a raw deal. He passed a field sobriety test. The guy he hit was intoxicated far beyond what Stallworth was. On top of that he has to live with the fact that he's been at least somewhat responsible for the death of another person.

You think Stallworth got a raw deal? How about the poor guy he ran over? Hes the one that got the raw deal. He cant go back to work next year.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
