    Speaking of:


    Titans running back Antonio Andrews was not fined for his hit on Browns safety Jordan Poyerlast Sunday that ended Poyer’s season, PFT has confirmed.

    My understand is they go to charity so that the fines can be written off by the players as a taxable donation. With their salaries, most fines mean nothing.

    Ouch, I guess it's nothing when you make millions though.
    Player Safety issues should be fined and in some cases bigger fines. But fines for celebrating, as long as it's not offensive, are out of control....No Fun League in deed.
