He had no choice.
They claim, every team was doing the same thing (filming)
No other coach has ever been fined, certainly not 1/2 a mil!

The thing thats not coming up is that this was legal until this year. |

Ya, but $500K is pretty excessive for a fine, (plus 250 for team and #1) pick don't you think ?
This whole situation just doesn't add up ! |

From that explanation it sounds more like a charitable donation!
So maybe Bill B can use the $500K as a tax write off !  |

If BB wanted to be the next richard hatch he would try to claim a deduction from his taxes, but he is a lot smarter than that.
As part of the NFL anti-trust agreement they have different tax rules, not sure if involves donations, which under the anti-trust agreement have to go to charity. |
