I don't see where this was a "NFL incident" in the first place. This was between Farve and Strenger...not a NFL problem.
Sterger was an employee of an NFL team, the Jets, at the time of the incident(s) and the league has long taken a stance that it can fine and/or suspend players for actions detrimental to the league.
Granted, actions against a player for sexual harassment is a very rare case, but there is precedent for it. The big one is the Lisa Olson case from the early 90s in which there was a big stink about how Patriots players acted around her in the locker room during post-game interview time. The league ended up fining Patriots players and management around $80K in total.
