The NFL takes the "fined" money and donates it to charities, but there is some controversy in that regards as well. Tax breaks and charities that are High $$$ Cost Administration vs actual charity receipt of $$$.

What's next? Facemask, 15 yard penalty, automatic 1st down and $25k fine.

The fine said crack back, not block in the back. Both are different and there is no crack back on this play.

They have to fund the Goodell Cocaine Fund somehow.

Well and clearly the individual fined should be one with tax break. Better be that way.
