Bush kept getting fined for wearing the gold Adidas in 06. No suspensions.


Such a waste of money. I understand as long as they're playing $10k is nothing for them. But what a waste of money that most of them will need when they retire because you're so damn stubborn that you have to keep wearing something you're not supposed to.

They're actually making money from the sponsors for wearing them and like many have said the sponsors probably pay the fine

10k for 16 games is 160k unless they have something in the contract that will raise it. That's like a week at exclusive clubs, a week at strip clubs, and a one day shopping spree.

Cam inked the largest deal for an NFL Rookie ever plus he has a deal with gatorade, plus he's getting 22 mill over four years under his contract. In 2015, either the Panthers or someone else will pay him over 70 mill for a six year deal. This dude makes well over a million a year for the UA deal, he will pay maybe 1/10th of that in those fines.
