Well that was my entire point.
You usually never see a fine as high as $35k unless it's something the league deemed pretty serious or if you're a regular offender of on the field mishaps.
Adam Jones horse collar tackled somebody 3 years ago and slapped a stripper 8 years ago. Neither of those have anything to with why his fine is $35k no matter what people on these boards want to believe. People can keep senselessly calling others a "joke" for pointing out facts, but at the end of the day those facts aren't changing.
Sorry to hurt anyone's feeling with this, but apparently it's a soft spot for some. I didn't even say my opinion on the matter in this entire thread, I merely pointed out how the league obviously felt about it by looking at the numbers and people start whining. I shouldn't be so surprised.
