NEW YORK -- Atlanta Falcons coach Jim Mora has been fined $25,000 by the NFL for using a cell phone on the sidelines during the team's overtime loss to Tampa Bay on Dec. 24.
Mora was fined under a rule adopted last March prohibiting the use of cell phones or any other form of communications by coaches or players on the field -- other than the regular phones used by teams to communicate between the sideline and press box.
Browns - Paul Brown put a speaker in Otto Graham's helmet so he could talk to him before and during plays. There was no rule against it but when it was discovered the league had to scramble to ban it. No rule doesn't mean it wasn't cheating, though. If Belichick could put a GPS unit on the ball and taget our WR, would that not be cheating just because there's no rule ?
oh thats right! well the falcons are tainted!
If it's against the reasonable spirit of competition then it's still cheating.if there is not a rule against doing something, how is doing it cheating?
