Moss Fined....

Post by TeeterSalad »

Posted by ESPN.com's Matt Mosley

This sort of pales in comparison to a player reportedly shooting himself in the leg by accident, but Redskins wide receiver Santana Moss has been fined $5,000 by the league for striking Seahawks cornerback Josh Wilson after a play in the second quarter of Sunday's game. Moss was flagged for a personal foul, which took the Redskins out of field goal range.

I guess the league took a couple of days off for the holidays, because these fines normally come down earlier in the week. And as far as fines go, $5,000 is the equivalent to a slap on the wrist. I don't expect Moss to appeal this fine. He can use some of the money he earned doing that commercial for Dick's Sporting Goods, which runs in a continuous loop during late-night college basketball games on ESPN2.

$5,000 is nothing. I guess the league didn't feel that the hit was that egregious.

wow, 5k is nothing, he should've gotten at least a 1 game suspension for that, wait, nevermind, JC17 barely gives him deepones so it's like punishment within itself...

If the play's are called quick slant, I don't think he's got time to survey the rest of the field. I still blame JZ.

Moss was fined because JC can't throw a slant which JZ called? :hmm:
