Sometimes it's nice to hear about people with power getting punished for their actions. You know, just a nice reminder that the big guys and girls can get into trouble too.
Well, Bud Adams is our focus today. In case you don't know who Adams is, I'll give you a few facts real quick:
This past week, Adams' lowly Titans beat the Buffalo Bills at Buffalo. Adams, who was attending the game, was thrilled by the win. He was so thrilled that he decided that he needed to let everyone in Ralph Wilson Stadium know how he felt . Well, follow this link to see the result: Crazy Bud Adams Video
Wow. This is a real video, and this is on YouTube, and this is the age of technology. So what does all this mean for Bud Adams?
One Big Fine.
How does $250,000 sound?
Since I'm not as rich as Mr. Adams, I like to think of all the things that $250,000 could be used for. Things like:
At least the NFL isn't joking around when it comes to good behavior. Good for them. It's about time athletes and people involved in the sporting realm are held accountable for their actions.
So, Bud Adams, you got what you deserved. And seriously, your team is only 3-6. Was it really worth it?

I think it's the best when the owners are the ones acting up and misbehaving. The sad part is, NFL owners are so rich that $250,000 fines are not enough to keep them from acting unfortunately. I think a $100 fine would keep me from doing anything of this nature. I really like your blog because it is completely unique. Well done.
ReplyDeleteYour blog is awesome and funny. but like zach said $250,000 is pocket change to Bud Adams. They should suspend them from going to a game or going down to the field for a game.
ReplyDeleteI'm from Buffalo originally and follow the Bills. It's bad enough that they're living well below expectations again this year, we didn't need him to rub it in. I agree $250,000 is a drop in the bucket, he makes that is beer sales 10x over by the first quarter. Solid blog, hopefully firing Jauron will keep me from getting flipped off on Sundays.
ReplyDeleteI remember seeing this and thinking "I bet this will be on the poor sports blog."
ReplyDeletehilarious
$250,000 is insane but I guess money is no object to jerks like him.
ReplyDeleteSometimes the fines r just a rediculous as the actions. It wasn't even a slap on the wrist! o well..
ReplyDeleteThese stupid fines will never keep rich owners from being disgraceful. What a disgusting old man.
