Exactly, RR. To me this falls in the stupid mistakes category that we so wanted to get away from. Oh well.

Ever hear the expression "no blood, no foul?"

Is it boneheaded? Sure.

Am I going to get up in arms like we just signed Mark Brunell to a $42 million contract? Um, no.

Put me in the "Who Cares?" camp.......this is SO not news.

I guess Gibbs and Williams are the 'boneheads'

Quote:

During a Nov. 12 practice, the Redskins used one more practice-squad player than they were allowed, leading to the fine.

Two days before that practice, Washington had cut receiver Gari Scott from the practice squad. But two days later, without any other practice-squad player being released, Scott practiced, giving the Redskins nine practice-squad members on the field.

Redskins coach Joe Gibbs and assistant head coach for defense Gregg Williams said afterward they had found a loophole making this legal.

NFL rules stipulate that clubs must submit any roster moves by 4 p.m. The Redskins apparently believed they could use the extra player during practice as long as another player was cut by 4 p.m. But the league said there was no such loophole.

Big freakin' deal! Why are we trying to find ways to complain about our team?
