Will be interesting what comes out of the ATL and Cle issues. I think ATL needs to get doubled whatever Clev gets. I remember Indy being accused of doing this a number of years ago but nothing came of it.
I have a feeling though the league will come down hard though as a deterrent

Don't shoot the messenger but I heard a rumor coming out of Atlanta that the Browns "severe" punishment was a 2nd & a 4th.

If it's a 2nd and a 4th, Atlanta should lose their next 2 firsts.

Mike Sando, ESPN.com ‏@SandoESPN 3m3 minutes ago #Browns come out fine. GM suspended only AFTER roster reduction to 53, and $250k fine is 28.7 percent of their kicker's base salary.

Real punishment is in the fine print.

Just incredibly stupid to believe (I know, you only posted it and you didn't say you believed it..) that the Browns would lose a second and fourth round pick for the GM texting the coordinator.

Reported what I heard, not what I believed. Like you said. Big difference. Had I said "I think that is what the punishment is going to be" I'd agree with you.SportsAndLady;1717325 wrote:I'm going to shoot the messenger.

I wasn't falling for it myself. I was just the dumbass who forgot to add "there's no way they are getting fined this badly" but when I post some shit like that, when I hear it, it goes from "what I heard" to "boy, ol BR's a dumbass for believing that."Pick6;1717331 wrote:Get off BR's nuts.
