FWST Blog: Romo, Gurode, and Burnett fined for uniform violations

[WoodysGirl]

The Fashion Patrol Drops the Hammer

Wednesday is usually the day in the NFL when players discover if they've been fined for something they did in the previous game.

Apparently a few of the Cowboys committed a fashion faux pas against the Commanders. Players such as Kevin Burnett, Andre Gurode and Tony Romo all received letters this week saying they will be fined $5,000 for something related to how they wore their uniform against the Commanders.

Something apparently related to the way they were wearing their socks. I just watched the highlights of the game to see why these guys would be fined and could see nothing. As the Little Ball of Hate knows, I am no fashion expert, but it wasn't as if Romo was wearing yellow with red or some other hideous combination.

This is just another example of the NFL having far too many rules, or far too many employees to monitor such infractions.

The NFLs front office are communists.

This is beyond stupid.


For the way they wore socks? Socks? I'd slap Goodell upside the head if I ever saw him. Then using my best Cartman voice, yell "respect my authoritaaaaah."



That being said....

I look forward to people coming into this thread and complaining about "anti-Cowboys" bias.

They should fine the official who called the hold on Kyle Kozier. It brought back a long Marion Barber run and cost us a chance to score.

Wow. This seems like some really silly stuff to be fined for but I guess that's in line with all the other really silly stuff people are fined for.

As long as they're doling out fines for uniform violations, they should fine the entire Commanders team for wearing cleats that look like penalty flags.

All righty then, here you go. Were the Skins fined for any such nonsense?

I thought sure this was going to be for the "goofy" hat in the news conference. At least that would have been understandable.
They think they have dumb us all down to the point we won't notice their stupidity.

It appears that Romo's socks are an inch too short and not as white as R. Williams socks.
