Eagles Jason Babin Rants About $15K NFL Fine
Early in the season, Jason Babin leads the NFL with seven sacks. He is now on the list of players questioning how and why the NFL comes up with their fines. So am I.
Jason reacted about news on the fine and was quoted by philly.com Eagles writer, Jeff Mclane saying, “It’s not like it was a late hit, it’s not like it was a malicious hit,”….”The funny part was on that play Trent Cole was high-lowed … and you can tell that [the 49ers] game planned it. So how are they going to fine me when you see a coach and players game plan to high-low arguably our best pass rusher on our team? That’s a little sickening.”

I agree with his assessment. Players do know what to do. When they see other players playing dirty, and they are not fined, the question begs: What the Hell?
I hope Babin uses the $15K fine as fuel for motivation against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. With his popular 100 yard-dash stance, he should want to keep his sack pace to lead the league. I am sure there is a fat bonus in his contract for attaining the feat. Then he could pay for more unforeseen, unfair potential NFL fines.
