No fines for the Eagles Red Kettle celebration?

[nathanlt]

Hey, it's past time for the NFL to have fined the eagles for their celebration against the Cowboys. What's the deal? Is this a penalty only reserved for Cowboys players?

They didn't actually touch it. There shouldn't be a fine.

They acted like they were stealing from it. Sounds like crime-ridden craphole Philly is.

Using it as a prop is a fine. Automatically usually

Extremely ironic a team from Philly would act like that. Just seems fitting.

 

[DogFace]

They promoted stealing from the poor. Only Brett Favre and the NFL could condone this behavior.

Yep

you have to jump in it they didnt

the celebration is fine imo i thought it was funny it seemed more like a grinch celebration than anything

 

[ESisback]

They should test it. Next TD, do EXACTLY what Philly did.

The rule refers to using it as a prop which they did.

Maybe they felt sorry for them?

I don't think there's anything in the rules saying that. It just says players can't use a prop, which they did. The kettle was a key part of their celebration, which means it was used as a prop.

This, no one jumped in.

Zeke threw a Football in it and did not get fined ........ jumping in it is the only thing that gets fined.

 

[JayFord]

well hey atleast they didnt do the Randy moss moon celebration

that would be the most philly thing ever

 

[Rockport]

I thought it was great because it showed how low life the players are just like their fans.

 

[cowboyec]

nfl condones a celebration depicting it....but would suspend players who actually would do that.
yet....jumping into the kettle sends a horrific message with significant social ramifications.

goodell is a spineless twit with no talent and a lisp.
got it

I can't believe this bothers the NFL Office enough to fine Dallas or any visiting player. I think it brings attention to the charity. They are letting D.Watson from Cleveland play this year but fining guys who jump into a red bucket. Doesn't he tarnish the image of the league more than 3 TEs playing Wack A Mole?
