Yes.

But $10,000.00?! Us little people have a hard time wrapping our minds around that.

Us little people also see the end of the two teams getting together on the field and praying at the end of games.

We see a whole team punished for the words one.

We see players getting fined for tackling too high, too low, or just plain too hard for this current regime's liking.

We see lawsuits from former players who may indeed be hurt but most likely pissed their money away and are striking the NFL pinata hoping to unleash gobs and gobs of money.

We see an NFL respond to thousands lawsuits by bullying a team into losing their coach, GM, Assistant coach, and trying to suspend many of it's players (two of the defenses captains.)

We see a better understanding in Chronic Brain Injuries and an NFL that wants more games to be played in spite of that knowledge.

We see players swing helmets at other players, stomp on players, gouge eyes amongst other despicable acts and those players miss a game or two while a team and it's remarkable fan base suffer for a whole year due to what may have or may not have been said.

We are watching an NFL that tells it's players that despite the fact that they have worked all their lives to get in to the league and have fun, they will be fined for celebrating after touchdowns.

We see an NFL that wants it's players to be emotionless and weak on the field. Most see the game turning into flag football in the future. I foresee robots. Real robots. Robots can't sue for injury.

If you ask most fans and players of football what they think of the NFL we will likely say that it's become . We detest whats happening right before our eyes and are helpless to it's changes. The beautiful game that we grew up watching seems to be eroding each year. Where's the breaking point? Will we always watch and give money to this corrupt agency?

Wow, thats a whole lotta seeing from just a uniform violation, and not his 1st one either.

Uniform violation is an easy one for me to understand. Obey the damn uniform rules and you won't get a uniform violation fine. Continue to violate the rules after receiving a fine and receive an even bigger fine.
