I'm just sitting here waiting for ANYBODY to give me a good explanation of which past actions would cause the NFL to fine Adam Jones about $20k more than they would have had this not been a "big deal" as some have been suggesting. A typical on the field issue will usually cost you around $15k, give or take a few thousand. Not $35k.
Was it his appearance with TNA wrestling? Was it his 2012 horse collar tackle? What was it? Instead of everybody hurling insults with zero substance in their posts, can somebody just give me a good reason why the fine was higher than all but 1 on-field incident from 2014??? Can anybody do that?
Not trying to go off on you specifically here, but this is getting ridiculous with nobody just giving me a good reason if this is such a simple issue.
I don't think they thought it was "no big deal". I honestly think they had to come down hard. They can't have that stuff going on, especially with the emphasis on player safety. I would not have been surprised at all if he would have been given a one game suspension to go along with the fine.
Are you really going to say that the strip club incident was the only time he has been in trouble though? How many times has he been arrested, convicted, party to a law suit?? This is the guy who got into a fight with the body guards Jerry Jones hired to keep him from getting into fights and other legal trouble...
