Harrison loses appeals........

[Steelersfan]

PITTSBURGH -- The NFL has rejected Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison's appeals of his $75,000 fine for a hit on Cleveland Browns wide receiver Mohamed Massaquoi and $20,000 fine for slamming helmet-first into New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees' back.
Harrison, a three-time Pro Bowl linebacker, learned Monday the league turned down his appeals. The NFL also did not reduce the fines.

There's a shock, I don't think any of us expected the NFL to actually admit they were wrong in fining Harrison, or fining him such an excessive amount.

It's the same douche-bag who handles appeals that hands out the fines. Dumbest **** I've ever heard of

I can't believe none of these players are getting their lawyers involved.

This appeal process will definitely be a sticking point in the new labor negiotiations I bet.

Good article thanks.

I don't see how the competition committee would have a problem if current AFC players have a say on fines for NFC players and vice versa.
