Brady fined 10k for sliding with his cleats up.

Uniform infraction >> Safety of players

Goodell is a joke.

Being required to wear your socks to the knees is BY FAR the dumbest rule in the NFL

Reminds me of when Clinton Portis was fined $20,000 for wearing black shoes and for wearing striped socks and an unapproved eye shield.

I feel like the NFL fined Gore $500 more than Brady just to stir up some controversy.

If he was really told before hand how to wear his socks and he didn't then I don't have a problem with the fine.

It's a known rule that's part of the uniform requirements. They have to wear the full stocking socks all the way up to the knee. I think it's retarded.

It is retarded but a rule is a rule. A uniform infraction garnering a bigger fine than Brady's slide is what's really proposterous.

Gore could have severely scraped his knees on the Dome's turf because of that.

He is just looking out for the safety of his players.

Didn't Vick write the league a check for every single game one season when he was with Atlanta for a uniform violation?
