Dome Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 (edited) This doesn't deserve a thread in NFL news, but holy smokes the NFL is soft as hell. (IMO, dont @ me) How is the flag not enough of a penalty here? There have been worse "taunts" and trash talking throughout the year, and in previous years... what's the precedent for a fine here? Am I just ignorant and a fine for a taunt is common? Discuss. https://sports.yahoo.com/antoine-winfield-jr-fined-7815-for-mocking-tyreek-hill-during-super-bowl-lv-201814971.html Edited February 14, 2021 by Dome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forge Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 This is standard. Hill has been fined multiple times for when he flashes the peace sign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sayheykid Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 I imagine he'd tell you it was worth it. The photo of Winfield throwing the deuces back in Hill's face is my desktop background from now until forever. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there something taunting about the peace sign? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same as the penalty itself, you can throw up a peace sign, no big deal. You can't shove any gesture into an opponent's face. It's why Hill has been penalized/fined...intermittently. When he's 20 yards away and throws up a peace sign, it's whatever. Do it straight to an opponent, it's a taunt. Not really a huge deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
