Twitter: Cowboys fined for OTA violation

[Redball Express]

How do you get put on triple secret probation and not disclose why. The NFL is looking more and more like an outtake of the movie Animal House every year.

Double secret probation..

I'm tired of us cheating. I really am.

Looking at last year's record we obviously aren't cheating enough

Thats it. time to start greasing the football's used for FGs by the other team and watch the fun. A banana in the tailpipe of the team bus would be good. Corso..thats your new job..the tailpipe caper.

Owners were already successful. News flash!

Less difficult offseason and training camps? Those poor athletes. The need definitely need more time off.

The owners didn’t want it, the players did. This is a rule negotiated in the CBA by the NFLPA. Goodell wants the games as competitive as possible, he’s likely all for more physical practices. But the league office has to enforce the CBA, including rules put in by the players. These fines are so the NFLPA doesn’t go spastic.

Oh the horror!

They made the players drink out of a water fountain instead of having chilled Evian. How utterly gauche. What's next? Toilets instead of bidets in the locker room?

fines are nothing to owners, and even coaches, but I do wonder where that specific $ goes ??
bad thing is cowboys lose a week of ota next year.

Bottom line is they set limitations, and if a team goes beyond that it isnt fair to teams that play by the rules is it?
It is cheating essentially.
how they know, it may not be players , they may have others watching all this. Otherwise more teams would also cheat.

they aren’t losing a week of otas next season, only one practice day

It is football... sigh.
