    I knew it was too good to be true. Foster was running with his socks a certain way, giving him an unfair advantage over defenses.

    What the hell? Not wearing your socks correctly? What is this, private school or something?

    No wonder why they call it the No Fun League. Can't do a damn thing w/o getting suspended or fined.

    Mario is showing some ownership of the D, hope Arian and our O line are the real deal

    Those fines are a joke, IMO.

    Foster's stiff arm is usual business in the NFL ...
    And the socks ... no comment.

    I was quite surprised we didn't see a penalty on Foster's stiff arm during the game. The announcers even mentioned that you can stiff arm a guy in the face mask, but you can't grab ahold of it, which Arian clearly did. I'm glad he got away with it since it was a long run. I was also surprised that Indy didn't make a bigger deal out of it.

    I think this was just an undercover fine for beating the Colts. ;)

    Seriously, the fine for the socks is just plain stupid.
