SportsFilter: The Sunday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.
Sad day, although definitely the right time. LT was a player you hated watching your favorite team play against, as any seemingly meaningless screen pass or run could go off at any moment.

That underwear stunt is really lame. The fine has to far exceed what he earned from it to be effective.

rcade, unless his contract with them included a clause for the company to pay any resulting fine. He or one of his agents/managers must have thought it likely enough to cover.

Sneaky. I guess the in-game punishment will have to cover that stratagem.
