So all those obvious false starts that the 49ers offensive line got away with and those pass interferences their defensive backs got away with along with the phantom roughing the passer call on Clay Matthews mean the Packers still had the refs on their side now?
smh… haters ain’t even using logic anymore.

Just about everything in tyrant godell reign of terror against the players could be described as
“arbitary and capricious.”

Hopefully, after the next CBA he will be selling beer and hot dogs to nfl fans.

He was intentionally trying to induce an unsportsman-like call in a close game which the refs were leaning to the Pack on constantly – but they were beaten physically, mentally and scoreboard-wise.

Of course, it didnt help that Pack receivers were dropping TD passes, either.

It is funny you don’t mention rape every time Big Ben comes up in an article. He has two instances you could bring up.

If anything, Finley should have been flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct for stepping OVER Cox and keening him in the back as he was trying to get up. I like Finley more than Cox, but that was low-class.

Given his semi-obnoxious nature, Finley’s probably one of the few NFL players that the league deems it okay to stomp.

Stop with the cox legal stuff please. Seriously he went through a trial and was found not guilty, he was not convicted, stop bringing it up.

If you watched the play you’d have seen that Finley was trying to pull the old “walk over” trick. Cox was just quick enough on the uptake to stand up and get Finley with some instant payback. A ref threw a flag (well, a hat) but another ref who had been looking at the whole situation was seen visibly waiving him off.

If anyone should be fined it would be Finley who INTENTIONALLY gave Cox the business at the end of the play.

I don’t like Finley. Dude is a punk. There was no call for that. Argue your case with the Refs but the contact after the play was straight up punk. If that’s how the man plays the game I hope he ends up on the wrong side of the business every time. He was only trying to get Cox out of the game cause he couldn’t beat him on the field.

I dont see how his criminal history is relevant to that play. Yet 2/3 of the article is about the crimes

Boo on you for trying to draw a parallel between what he was found innocent for and this non story

I guess it couldnt have been real rape or else she wouldnt have gotten pregnant. Amazing what these rich children get away with. Freedom dwells in the hands of those who can afford it.

As a Packers fan, cox didn’t deserve a fine. Finley was playing it up.

It wasn’t his leg, it was his ankle while in a position that could be twisted.

I agree waste of a article to write about. Bring up his past… low blow.

The more interesting “no fine” was the helmet first head butt than Gore took after he had scored his TD.

A very dangerous cheap shot that seemingly both the refs and the league office missed.

Finley should have been fined for trying to mount the back of Perrish’s helmet.

Everytime Cox is mentioned you bring up the criminal history that he was found NOT GUILTY of. Criminally he didnt do what he was convicted of. That fact of the matter was Finley intentionally walked into him. And the cleat was unintentional. Get over it!

If you actually watch it you’ll see that Finley started it. Doesnt matter though, the Niners still won!!!

The media hates the 49ers; too bad they’re winning the Super Bowl this season…

It seemed like an accident to me, they were both in the moment looking for a call/celebrating.

I really don’t know why you would think anybody would deserve a fine for that minor scuffle anyway, probably just a good excuse to bring up Cox’s scummy past.
