    Frank Gore fined $10,500 for wearing socks too low...

    @AdamSchefter: Not made up as much as it sounds like it: NFL fined 49ers RB Frank Gore $10,500 for wearing his socks too low during NFC Championship Game.



    Getting ridiculous

    I'd quit the game before I paid a fine for that.

    That is just insanely stupid. What kind of ****ing fine is that. Just pisses me off that people will eventually forget about this. NFL is run so poorly.

    Yep.

    Frank Gore is already a millionaire. He isnt playing the game for money now. He's playing for his team, for his legacy, for his pride.

    I have more pride than to accept a fine for how far my socks are pulled up.

    I'd walk away and retire a rich. Someone has to take a stand on this rubbish.

    Tom Brady tries to hack Ed Reed in half and not even a flag, and you're penalising a guy for how he wears his socks, or the brand on his tee shirt in the postgame interview or whatever? Its an absolute joke.

    Goodell should be fired today, specifically on the basis of this fine.

    In itself, the issuing of this fine is a sackable offence.

    It does not matter how rich you are everyone works hard for they're money. 10k is alot of money to anyone.
    But what a stupid fine.

    It's the principle. Goodell is such a money hungry tyrant.

    Where does all this fine money for for hits and uniform mistakes? Does the NFL pocket it? Do they give it to the retired vets?

    They fine Frank Gore, but not DeMarco Murray for showing his A@@ on national TV after every time he got tackled during the Steelers game?
