Bengals NFL Fines Ochocinco $20K for his $1 'Bribe'

Chad Ochocinco has been fined $20,000 by the NFL for flashing a dollar bill at an official during a replay challenge -- a joking attempt at what the Bengals receiver referred to as a "bribe" -- in last week's Cincinnati-Baltimore game. In the third quarter of last Sunday's 17-7 Bengals victory, Cincinnati quarterback Carson Palmer completed a 15-yard pass to Ochocinco. Baltimore challenged the call, contending that he was out of bounds, and the Ravens won the challenge. While the play was under review, Ochocinco held a $1 bill at his side, but the official appeared to dismiss his antic.

How silly. It should also be noted that he borrowed the dollar from a line judge.
