combatbengal Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 I guess since TO is out of the lime light, they have to pick on Chad. This guys are butt heads!!! I read this on the Bengals home page.CHAD FINED: Johnson still doesn’t have a lot of fans in the NFL office. A league official said Johnson was fined $5,000 in violation of the rule of “prolonged, excessive, or pre-meditated celebrations,” after pulling the back pylon out of the corner of the end zone and using it to putt the football after his 54-yard touchdown catch in last Sunday’s 42-29 victory over the Ravens. The official wouldn’t say if Johnson had been fined for his other celebrations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, I'll send $5/week (just skip morning coffee, and junk like that). He can send what's left over to charity (i.e. Mental Health Rehab Unit in Pittsburgh for Stiller fans suffering post 12-04 syndrome) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bengalboomer7 Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 If I was Chad I'd be an a**h*** and pay them in all change or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HairOnFire Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 Somewhere, Marvin Lewis has been told of the news and a large smile has crossed his face....as he considers the lower probability that Chad will draw a 15-yard penalty.

combatbengal Posted December 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 He didn't do anything to offend anybody! Last week he got down on one knee and proposed to a cheerleader and they didn't say anything about that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 If I was Chad I'd be an a**h*** and pay them in all change or something Or he could send a rediculously large bill (yes, I know there is no 5,000 dollar bill) and demand change.(This idea comes from many days of frustration at being a McDonald's cashier and receiving $100 bills to pay for 45 cent coffees...)

NYBengalfan Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 Wow, the League office is so *** damn harsh on these fines here, sheesh!!!! $5000 is like a nickel to Chad, his celebrations are worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bengalboomer7 Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 They fined him because it was pre-meditated and he used a prop.I'd seroiusly go get 5, 000 pennies right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bengalindian Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 I hope he has to pay 10 more of those fines this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
combatbengal Posted December 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 Most of his celebrations are pre-meditated. That's no excuse to fine the guy. Does Tiger Woods get fined for doing the same thing on national TV? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
