Sharper's pockets will be a little lighter this week. I wouldn't be surprised if the Sharper fan club sent money to him to help pay the fine. Only in America will people send money to a guy who has millions to pay a fine. They would do that but wouldn't give the bum on the streets a few dollars to buy a meal.


Oh, here you go, again...

A. Sharper lead with his shoulder, not his helmet. There was helmet to helmet contact, but Sharper's head was up and looking at his target.

B. Stewart was the friggin ball-carrier for crying out loud!! Not like he was "defenseless". Sharper was aiming to jar the ball loose - you know, something all players do...

C. Stewart wasn't down. No knee, no elbow, nothing. If you remember the call was reversed to a fumble.
