Bush fined $5,000 for taunting

NFL.com wire reports



MIAMI (Jan. 28, 2007) -- Reggie Bush was fined $5,000 by the NFL for taunting during his 88-yard touchdown reception in New Orleans' NFC championship game loss at Chicago last week.

Although the rookie running was not penalized for pointing back at Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher or for somersaulting into the end zone, he subsequently received the league's standard punishment for taunting.

NFL spokesman Greg Aiello confirmed the fine.

Bush, the 2005 Heisman Trophy winner and second pick in last year's draft, caught a short pass from Drew Brees on the left sideline. He sped downfield, cut back near midfield and was several steps ahead of Urlacher when Bush turned and pointed at the Bears star. He then did his front flip into the end zone, making the score 16-14.

The Bears won 39-14 to reach the Super Bowl.

he's probably laughing his *** off over that fine

he earned a heck of a lot more then 5g just walking onto the field that day


(league minimum is 260 k a year for rookies that would be less then 2% of his salary if he was making minimum, which he isn't)

[oumartin]

He doesn't care if his team lost.. He is just a punk kid with alot of ability and little class

[OU-HSV]

5K is nothing for those guys. Especially since Bush has about 280K saved up in a college benefits account.

laugh about fines for taunting, but at least the money goes to charity, and the real punishment will come on the IR list.

or he'll get stuck with Brett Favre ;)

that's the wrong kicker. It was Bill Gramatica that hurt his knee celebrating

I hate **** like that. call me old school, but give me the days when players like B. Sanders simply flipped the ball to the ref after a TD.
