    The NFL has fined the Tampa Bay Buccaneers $50,000, according to Fox Sports. Presumably the fines are for the repeated personal fouls over the past two weeks, as the Bucs racked up six of those against the New York Jets and New Orleans Saints.

    Dashon Goldson was fined $130,000 over the past two weeks for his hits against Jeff Cumberland and Darren Sproles, and Ahmad Black is likely to get a fine for his hit on Jimmy Graham against the Saints. Goldson at least managed to avoid suspension. The Bucs have been hitting people hard, but not legally, and they're paying for it as a franchise.

    Of course, the Glazers aren't exactly likely to be bothered greatly by the $50,000 fine financially, but it's another black mark for the Bucs in what is turning out to be a completely disastrous start to the NFL season.

    that amount is a joke. if they really wanted to fine them then do it for 500,000 dollars.

    I laugh at the Lions for being undisciplined. I think the Bucs are not far behind.
