All 53 players and all coaches and owner should all be penalized.
a fine is joke. they make millions of dollars. Speeding tickets lead to suspension of license and jail time. you can't keep making them pay a fine and sweep it under the rug.
That is barely fair.
or the DEATH PENALTY. Make the franchise defunct.

It's also a shame they escaped with only a fine. While Pacman and others have been suspended for having run-ins with the law, BB and the organization are allowed to move on with virtually no repercussions after knowingly affecting the integrity of the game.
For someone who is supposedly tough on crime, The Commish certainly dropped the ball on this one.

Shame on all his other coaches too. They deserve just as much blaim as bb.
