For the double bird flip.

That's a lot of change...is this the biggest fine ever in the NFL?

reminds me of the scene in Waiting.

I've heard blurbs and I'm lazy at the moment, but was this provoked?

I was shocked when I heard it, but I'm not that surprised when I really think about it. He's the owner, he should be held to a higher standard than the players...plus, he's the owner, he's got the coin. Sent a message though, and a good one I think. I don't love the No Fun BS, but there is no place for owners to be flipping people off from his seat in the NFL.

Not sure if it was provoked but the best part is Goodell was at the game and was in the box until 30 minutes before the incident. Goodell went down to mingle with fans and then this happened with Adams. Pretty funny stuff.

He was just doing the damn thing. Nothing wrong with that, if anything they should be paying him.

I believe Ray Lewis was fined the same amount after he killed someone.

I think ESPN counted that he gave the "number one sign" thirteen times.

Hahahahaha. They were talking about this on Mike and Mike this morning and said it was like machine gun flipping the bird. Watching that video was hilarious.

It was quite comical. I'm sure he felt a lot better after all the crap he had to put up with the first half of the season. I still don't feel like the Titans are as bad a team as their record indicates. They won't make the playoffs this year obviously, but I think they will be ok next season depending on who they lose (no clue off the top of my head).

250k for showing some free bird? He really should have got the most bang for his buck. He should have dropped his pimp pants that matched his pimp suit, let his hanglow.. well.. hang low, and give everybody a good ole' "suck it".
