The Western Journal: Pathetic: NFL Fines Player for Something He Didn't Say, Then Doubles Down On It
The NFL fined Texans running back Joe Mixon $25,000 for comments he did not make, originally attributing a critical statement about officiating to him instead of former player T.J. Houshmandzadeh.

This incident raises questions about the integrity of NFL officiating, especially in light of the league's ties to gambling and its apparent prioritization of profit over fairness.
