I'd respect him more if he stuck to his guns, and didn't apologize.

"He must undergo educational training before he can return to the Dolphins, according to the team. As per the NFL's new collective bargaining agreement, the training will consist of 5 mandatory sessions in which Jones will be required to view a series of select films taken from Roger Goodell's extensive collection of homosexual ****ography. When asked to comment further about the contents of this required training, Jones simply replied, 'Gay'."

The NFL has a lot of idiots playing in the league, but how do the Dolphins manage to have like half of them?

He embarrassed the organization, so the Dolphins can punish him however they see fit.

I don't see how tweeting the simple terms "OMG" & "Horrible" are an embarrassment to the Dolphins organization. Now, if he 're-tweeted' something saying Sam had been drafted, then added the OMG or Horrible to it, I can understand the reasoning for the fine.

The Dolphins obviously did, and their opinion is the only one that matters in this case.

Exactly.

The tweet "horrible" was in response to someone asking if his "OMG" tweet was talking about the kiss seen on TV... So yea it's definitely a negative view towards the situation. Which results in embarrassment to the Dolphins.

I dont believe that "horrible" was a bad choice of a word to use and I think that response is acceptable compared to what most other people would have said. If he said something like "Fag" or made a funny pun like "its ironic that a gay player got drafted by the RAMS" I can see suspensions and sensitivity training for that. Look at what Marshall Henderson said about the kiss

Marshall Henderson doesn't approve of ESPN's Michael Sam coverage - CBSSports.com

Junior lawyer wannabe here. Don't worry, the adults will take over from here.

And I really don't see how the Dolphins can further embarrass themselves. A homophobe in the NFL is hardly newsworthy.

I'm saying that the statement that 'you can't prove he was talking about Sam' defied basic intelligence and was a pathetic attempt at 'lawyering up'. Everyone here with half a brain knew exactly what Jones was tweeting about and that's why the fool was already apologizing. The fact that the second comment was in reply to a direct question about Sam is hard proof, but was unnecessary to anyone with half a brain. Or a quarter of a brain.

Personal insults. Nice. You stay classy.
