Expensive cell phone call
Here's another reason why the NFL is called the No Fun League: Atlanta Falcons coach Jim Mora was fined $25,000 for making a cell phone call while on the sidelines during an overtime loss at Tampa Bay. He was talking to team officials about the Falcons' status in the playoff race.
The NFL has fined players for things such as socks that are too long or short, socks that are the wrong color, and headbands. To describe all this using the word "ridiculous" would be too mild.
Fines should be assessed for unprofessional conduct, not for making an important call to team executives during a game.
