    Will be interesting what comes out of the ATL and Cle issues. I think ATL needs to get doubled whatever Clev gets. I remember Indy being accused of doing this a number of years ago but nothing came of it.

    I have a feeling though the league will come down hard though as a deterrent

    Don't shoot the messenger but I heard a rumor coming out of Atlanta that the Browns "severe" punishment was a 2nd & a 4th.

    Is Atlanta radio as bad as Cleveland radio?

    What is your source?

    2nd and a 4th?

    Fuck that.
  • sleeper
    If it's a 2nd and a 4th, Atlanta should lose their next 2 firsts.

    Just saw this and that's very good news, if true.

    As far as the earlier "2nd & 4th" report, it was coming out of Atlanta.

    Mike Sando, ESPN.com ‏@SandoESPN 3m3 minutes ago #Browns come out fine. GM suspended only AFTER roster reduction to 53, and $250k fine is 28.7 percent of their kicker's base salary.

    Ian Rapoport ‏@RapSheet 4m4 minutes ago The #Falcons, for pumping in fake crowd noise, are fined $350,000 and will forfeit their fifth-round selection in the 2016 Draft.

    So much for "severe".
  • sleeper
    Wow 5th round pick, so severe.
  • thavoice
    Real punishment is in the fine print.

    Iggy takes over during the suspension of the GM...

    I'm going to shoot the messenger.

    Just incredibly stupid to believe (I know, you only posted it and you didn't say you believed it..) that the Browns would lose a second and fourth round pick for the GM texting the coordinator.

    Yeah, because I'm the only one here who has ever heard of Adam Schefter. :rolleyes:

    Reported what I heard, not what I believed. Like you said. Big difference. Had I said "I think that is what the punishment is going to be" I'd agree with you.

    The day your "I am hearing..." Posts actually come true, I'll be one shocked mofo.

    I wasn't falling for it myself. I was just the dumbass who forgot to add "there's no way they are getting fined this badly" but when I post some shit like that, when I hear it, it goes from "what I heard" to "boy, ol BR's a dumbass for believing that."
