Ask me about how my football team's success determines my self worth, and how I wish I lived in New Orleans.

What's surprising about that? The NFL came out like immediately afterwards and said it should've been flagged.

Nothing surprising, unfortunately. The :raise: was for the fact that Sherman got fined less for diving at a dude's knees while the likes of Josh Norman, Vernon Davis, etc. get fined more for shooting fake arrows and pretending a football is a basketball.

It's part of the CBA. Fines started in 2012 at like 7500 and went up 5% per year

so

2012 $7500
2013 $7875
2014 $8269
2015 $8682
2016 $9115

The 2011 CBA put in place a fine schedule that was all round numbers:
http://blogs.nfl.com/2011/09/15/nfl-releases-details-on-fines-discipline/

But the 2011 CBA also has a 5% increase per year ("The designated minimum fine amounts will increase by 5% for the 2012 League Year, and each League Year thereafter during the term of this Agreement." Article 46, Section 1(d)).

so the $7,500 2011 late hit penalty is now $9,115 (note: the NFL has rounded this down every year or it would now be $9,116.30).

e;f Kalli, but mine has more details and citations.

Sherman paid the kicker cost of $9115, gained first strike, landwalk, tap target creature (that creature does not untap during it's next upkeep phase), cannot be targeted by refs.

JFC that's a haul, even considering his NFL salary that's way too much money to put into this dumb game (I say this as someone who plays)

Also :lol: at two tickets for returning that, if whoever stole that knows what they're doing they can sell one or two of those for tix and pocket the rest.

Gronk has already thrown two picks, one returned for 6. What a loser.
