This is not a good way for the NFL to treat its latest cash cow.

He knew the rules and violated them, likely with the consent of Adidas, who will also likely pay for it. No big deal.

What is he going to do, leave the NFL and go play in Canada?

It's a rule that he intentionally broke. It's not uncommon for guys to cover up a logo if they're sponsored by a competing company, that's not what he did here.

NFL gets their 10 g's, Nike's happy. Griffin gets his fine paid for by Adidas, Adidas gets additional pub. Everybody wins.
