If you look at the history, Drew NEVER gets these kind of calls...hardly ever...we've all seen Drew get manhandled, punched, beaten up and ridiculously sacked and thrown to the ground LONG AFTER the ball was gone, and NO FLAG, for years now.... Now that he is our $100 million dollar man I look forward to many more calls and fines like this going in our favor. Hopefully other players will learn the lesson from this, that this guy hit Drew and wound up getting fined and losing the game for his team, and this will make other defenders hesitate or slow down or think for that extra split second, giving Drew more time to throw or evade. Good call by the refs, good fine by the league, it's about time they started paying attention to Drew back there, the way they do Brady and Manning and Rodgers.

Nah! It was the entrance fee some smart charged Goodell for entering Harrah's

It was the Goodell calculation; ie,
Cost of contract ÷ expected number of plays each game of the player.

Then again, that could be b%^&s@£*! like the man himself.

I'm not sure Drew would of even threw that ball the way he did if not for the guy in the face...
