[quote=skinsfan_nn;626753]Agreed. He's an old senile bastard, and made a fool of himself.

He probably thought he was just waving as he stood there pissing in his depends.

If I had to guess he won't make that mistake again....[/quote]
Yeah he made a fool of himself, but at 250 a pop, I am sure the NFL is actually cool with it.

Off topic for a second, the Redskins image on your homepage is way too big. You have hardly any content above the fold

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
 

^ I wish I had a quarter mill to burn.....I'd go to work and do the same thing. ;)

[quote=Mattyk72;626766]I would think if Snyder did this people would be in a mega uproar around here.

Not a classy move if you ask me. The league should expect better from it's owners and I don't have a problem with the large fine.[/quote]


Anyone think that having Goodell at the game might have had something to do with the amount of the fine?

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
 

Gotta love a crusty old guy like that! I wonder if JKC would have ever given multiple birds, to the Cowpukes perhaps?

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
 

[quote=SmootSmack;626815]Absolutely, just like they would be in a mega uproar if Snyder had publicly insisted the backup QB start.

[B]Adams is getting away with a lot in the public's eye now with the defense of "Well he's old[/B]"[/quote]

if you can't use that then what's the point of getting old

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
 

Bud Adams needs a Sam Adams because that was AWESOME

[quote=ArtMonkDrillz;626734]I'm pretty much a fan of ANY old man acting in such a way, so for an 86 year old billionaire to be dancing with guns'a'blazing is hilarious in my opinion.

Does he look like a fool? Yeah. Does he embarrass the Titans organization? Some what. Is it funny? You bet your ass it is![/quote]

Absolutely.

To those saying 'dementia' and the like, if you can't laugh at a cantankerous old man flipping off 60 thousand plus, there's no hope for you.

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
 

I've always wanted to ask this....
Is that $250k after taxes or does he get to claim the fine as a donation to charity and write it off or is it a pre-tax fine...

Silly question I know but so is the thread really.

Agreed; though I do find it funny just due to his age.

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
 

Jim Rome made a good observation today, Adams gets fined 250,000 for flipping the bird. Darth Hoody gets 500k fine for cheating for couple years.

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
 

Considering Rodger Goodell was in the box with Bud discussing how to make the NFL a more family friendly enviroment at the stadiums, this fine is right in line and appropriate. I am surprised that a guy in his 80's after having this discussion would do such a thing. I would tend to think that RG found this gesture a real slap in the face after thier conversation.

Although I do find the action funny considering what the topic of discussion was in the box all afternoon I find this a little upsurd. Unless Bud did it as a gesture of F U to the NFL and their stupid family friendly idea.

I had not heard about the Commish being there, Bud is CRAZY. :D

Even weirder, the Titans won 41-17...I could understand this slightly more if they were losing or cheated by a bad call.

Re: Bud Adams is awesome.
 

He wasn't in the box at the time, he was in the stands or might have just left the stadium by then
