Any Word on a Marcus Peters Fine?

[Dieter the Brock]

Never said Bubba was lame
BEING ASHAMED OF THE RAMS IF FUCKING LAME AND A SIN

 

[Dieter the Brock]

So I guess it's OK for your kids. Expalian that to your 7 year old grand daughter.

I was embarrassed for HER. Do you get that? I could care less personally.

Was she embarrassed - most likely not

Anyway - he was fined 13k so you should let her know

 

[Boston Ram]

Im totally clueless lol, I didnt even realize he grabbed his junk till someone at work told me. I seen the whole thing live but never put the pieces together.....just thought he was doing a little celebration and the hand landed where it landed. I guess we see what we want to see sometimes lol

When I was 7 I was watching Stone Cold Steve Austin give people the finger after pouring beer all over himself. I watched Triple H do the “Suck It” gesture to millions of people watching at home.

This is nothing new. People are just becoming overly sensitive.

 

[Mojo Ram]

The gesture was in very poor taste and he deserves a fine. Not a very good example for the kids.

The kids were asleep and so were most adults at that point. I wish more NFL fans had watched that game tbh.

That wasn't your point i get it but just sayin.

Can't wait to post that photo to Facebook if we win the Superbowl. Lol imagine a Lombardi trophy in his hand. Oh man the season just started and i'm already counting my chickens before they hatch.

 

[Mojo Ram]

I put it on my FB. To each their own in terms of what one believes is tasteless. I won't throw my soap box at you as long as you don't try throwing yours on me. Golden rule.

I happen to think this team needed some "dogs" on the roster.

I know people nickname their junk sometimes - but "Lombardi trophy"?

100% in agreement. Other teams pull that kind of crap all the time when they are demolishing teams. Our guys don't even really celebrate when they get to the end zone. I'm not going to raise arms over a shut down corner, hometown kid doing his job and celebrating his victory with his teammates. Even Goff and Mcvay were celebrating with him. If Antonio Brown can twerk in the endzone, Peters is fine crotch grabbing for a brief second on his way to the endzone too.

 

[Hannibal Ram]

I can see both sides of the issue. As I said in the OP, I was shocked first, then laughed hysterically. I think this team needs a little bravado and swagger. If this is it, I am fine with it. If this is just the beginning and it keeps escalating, then it will have to be addressed by the coaching staff. Just my 2 cents worth.

 

[Young Ram]

“Daddy, what did Peters just do when he scored that pick 6?”

“Err... it’s called the beast mode honey...”

 

[I like Rams]

 

[Mackeyser]

$13,000 to have one of the most iconic photos in Rams history is actually pretty reasonable. By iconic, I mean, these Rams are new and exciting with swagger and watermelon size cajones. That photo, to me, is the official changing of the guard. Things just got real. This photo, this moment, MNF, in the most hostile historic stadium in the NFL with a sea of Raiders fans in the background.............. wow, just wow!

Yeah, as another member said, he posterized the Black Hole... that's just amazing.

That photo really does feel like a sea change.

Also, small side note: Has anyone noticed how much Cooper Kupp and Sean McVay EXCITE the people around them?

Marcus Peters was shouting loudest for Cooper Kupp. That dude just elicits MAD respect from elites. As does McVay.

Cooper Kupp is gonna be like Ricky Proehl in that he's going to have a great career and then be an amazing coach.

Honestly, I dunno if I've EVER been this excited about a Rams team mid-week.

 

[Jorgeh0605]

I don't understand what is difficult to explain to kids.

Kid: Dad what was that gesture?
Dad: Idk, maybe he just sand in his pants.

Done and done. It doesn't have to mean anything to them if you don't want it to. Now, if they start imitating him then well, at least they're scoring touchdowns.

 

[Ellard80]

Well I'm not big on political correctness...
However grabbing your dick as a way to show dominance... I'm sorry but that's just trash behavior. In any job I've ever had If I did that where "the public" or certain people could see I'd have been instantly fired. I've coached football and basketball at different times for 25 years. If I ever saw a kid do that...

Also some of you are forgetting - in the Fisher years we had a lot of undisciplined, yapping and shit talking that lead to penalties and losing. That "attitude" wasn't something that helped us win.


That being said, I'm not deeply offended, but yeah... not a big fan of self dick grabbing as a public celebration.

 

[CGI_Ram]

Honestly... until just reading this thread... I didn’t know he grabbed himself.

I was too focused on his head hitting the ground every time I saw the replay.

 

[tklongball]

not a big fan of self dick grabbing as a public celebration.

So only grabbing other people's junk? That seems much worse.

 

[LesBaker]

* NEWSFLASH - women love penis

This is true. But not of guys who grab theirs in public I bet.

People are just becoming overly sensitive.

Or maybe just inured to low brow actions and behaviors. There are two sides to this at least.

not a big fan of self dick grabbing as a public celebration

IMO it's as dumb as they guy celebrating a TD when his team is down 17 with 10 seconds left.

 

[EastRam]

And Donald was fined 20k for his hit on Carr

Donald should tweet a pic doing what Peters did to the commish.
