Bud Adams Middle Finger
Highlights: Titans owner Bud Adams for finger salute!
AP: The NFL flags and fines players for excessive celebration on the field. Commissioner Roger Goodell just sent a very clear message that the league’s owners aren’t above those same rules.
The NFL fined Titans owner Bud Adams $250,000 on Monday for making obscene hand gestures at Buffalo fans while celebrating Tennessee’s 41-17 win over the Bills. Adams was seen making the gesture both from his luxury suite and again on the field at the end of the game Sunday.
“I do realize that those types of things shouldn’t happen,” Adams said in a statement. “I need to specifically apologize to the Bills, their fans, our fans and the NFL. I obviously have a great deal of respect for (Bills owner) Ralph Wilson and the history we have shared.”

Goodell notified Adams of the fine Monday, less than 24 hours after the 86-year-old owner said he got caught up in the excitement of the win. League spokesman Greg Aiello said the fine is for conduct detrimental to the NFL. Read full story here
