NFL Fine Blotter: Third time's a charm?

Usually don't get a direct announcement from the league on Sunday, but we got one today:
  • Washington Redskins:  Josh Norman, now a THREE-TIME LOSER (and it seems more than that!):  $25,000 for singling out one of the officials in a post-game rant after last week's tie in London.
Norman roasted the field judge after being flagged by him for five penalties in the game.  Four of them were for illegal use of the hands.  (The report notes that Norman only had seven such penalties in his entire career!)

The Redskins now become the fifth NFL team, through eight weeks, to have $100,000 in found fines.  Norman himself applies for over $80,000 of that amount.

And, lookee here:  A fight in the first drive of the Cowboys game gets two players tossed.  They'll be about $30K or so lighter each when the league sees that one.
