  • cefox I am a professional female sports-bar bartender... If I got $50 Lg-Lg.... for everytime I've had my arm grabbed I'd buy the NFL, withdrawel Mr. Bellichicks' fine and give him a bonus for helping to get done what Mr. Goodalls' ineptitude at achieving what cost Mr Belichick and his NE PatsTeam 2 loses by 1 field goal (Cards by 2, Ravs by 1, yeah 3 pts.)
    Then I would fine Rog for failing to provide what should be a contractual between the league and the teams.
    Finally, for the 100K fine I should get for each of the times my gluteus maximus has been grabbed by highly excited football fans; I would buy the Pats and Pacs 'replacement' games to replace the ones stolen from them buy the blame shifting insincere, non-apologetic top haunch.
    Whom, by the way, I would also alot a raise just to keep him around to blame MY mistakes on!!
