Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
This is not news but it's the first I've heard about it. Goodell = The Grinch
New Orleans Saints running back Pierre Thomas has been fined $12,500 for a uniform violation and a touchdown celebration in which he placed a bow on a football and gave it to a fan during the Saints' win over the Atlanta Falcons. Pierre Thomas was fined $12,500 for his Christmas-themed celebration Monday night.
The fine for the celebration is $7,500. Thomas also violated NFL policies by wearing Christmas-themed green and red tape on his black and gold Saints uniform, and his fine for that is $5,000.
The Saints players wearing the red and green tape were not only fined, but told at halftime by the league that if they did not remove it, they could not play the second half.
