Posted November 10, 2009 OK, my guess is that Coach Smith is going to get fined. Personally, I'm glad he reacted to D-Hall coming to our sideline and starting trouble. I do not condone a coach every putting his hands on a player in a threatening way (I still laugh out loud every time I say that), but I thought his reaction was appropriate.I know that Smith makes big bucks, and the organization would probably flip the bill anyway, but how cool would it be if the fans of this city took up a collection to pay Smith's fine? I for one would donate my lunch money for the day to show this organization that the fans will come to Smith's side just like he came to his players side.If Smith does receive a fine, I say we "pass the hat" and chip in (probably via Pay Pal). Even if we only conver a fraction of the cost, I'd love to show our team that we truly stand behind them.Anyone else with me? A $5 gesture is something everyone can afford!

Posted November 10, 2009 OK, I'm serious. If Smith gets fined, we will set up a PayPal account for donations. I'll call the FAlcons today to let Coach Smith know that we have his back! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 10, 2009 I'll even toss in an extra $20 for the next time a player decides to come over to our sideline and start $hit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 10, 2009 It's a nice gesture, but he's not going to need my money. The Falcons players will be fighting over who gets to pay that fine for coach Smith, and I think donations will be pouring in from around the league, along with congratulatory notes.

Posted November 10, 2009 I was thinking of starting a post like this yesterday. See if you can get enough interest and I'll put some in the basket. I realize Smith or the Falcons may refuse the money for PR reasons so if that happens maybe the money can go to Toys for Tots or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 10, 2009 I am feeling generous so i am going to contribute $650. Tell the Falcons to take it out of the $650 I had to pay for 10 worthless preseason tickets. Ssal0808 likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
