When anyone else gets fined, people just yawn.

That’s hilarious.

For just $5,000 more, Mayo can just walk up to any QB in the league and punch them right in the face.

Gotta love Goodell.

Mayo led with his shoulder, and hit the QB just below the head. Orlovski’s head did snap back but it’s just incidental of taking a straight on sack high in the chest. Did Mayo’s helmut strike the QB’s???….maybe. It was a camera angle from behind the QB so it was difficult to tell. But if you look at the form and the shoulder-first way Mayo hit him….I find it absolutely ludicrous for him to be find. A couple of other things: He was not flagged on it so the refs thought it was clean. I watched the hit at least 5 times on DVR right after it happened. My conclusion is that it’s possible that helmuts may have hit….but at worst it was a glancing blow. Regardless, he should not be fined because everything about that hit was text book perfect. He led with his shoulder and it was obvious he was not trying to decapitate the QB. This fining business has gotten completely out of control.

I love that everyone didn’t like my comment. I don’t think he should be suspended; I’m just pointing out the clear hypocrisy of the media.

They don’t like your comment because they are Pats crybaby fans.

Next time just rip the flag off his waist and he will be declared down by contact

If Mayo had sacked his own QB, the fine would have been double.

If that would be the case, they should fine New England sports fans for being the biggest wusses on the planet.

Go ahead, hit the thumbs down button idiot Pats fan losers.

I don’t see any reason to question the difference in fines. Hasn’t Mayo not only been one of the most repeat offenders but one of the most obvious and persistent offenders?
————————————————————
I’ll perceive that there is sarcasm in your statement. Mayo has been one of the league leaders in tackles during his career and I can only remember him being fined 1 time before. That was last year against the Bills when he was fined $10,000 for an “illegal hit”. The “commish” nor anyone in the NFL would identify which hit was the illegal one from that game. I do believe that PFT even had an article on that.

It’s barely even news any more – just the cost of doing business in the NFL.

Why isn’t anyone asking if he will be suspended?

Oh that’s right; the media doesn’t have a target on his back.

I may be done when my team’s current crop of young players are done.

Then I’ll go into coaching kids, and teach them how football is meant to be played. Violently, passionately, and at 100% speed.

I can’t stand all the legal debate before, during, and after games lately. Is this football or a full-contact court case? I’m not at all interested in following the latter.
