It is interesting to see what big money has done to this sport. Back in the 60's and 70's, before the NFL came into its own, the penalty for intentionally striking an official was a lifetime ban from the league. Ronde's fine of $30,000 is but 1% of his salary ($3,250,000 in 2004). I believe the fine should at least be what he would make for the game which would be $203,125. What is so silly about this is that Ronde is appealing a fine that is only 1% of this salary.
