Wizard coach Curt Onalfo was fined by MLS this week after his team lost 1-0 to Toronto FC on Sunday.The $500fine was passed down by the MLS is officially called a disciplinary committee decision.The ruling was based on comments Onalfo made towards officials immediately after the game.

Goes to show you that it's always relative to the team you play for. I'm sure Onalfo thinks the ref cost them a point, same as we've felt before (Dallas). But why $500 to him and $750 to Carver? Seems like the number is arbitrary or something.

I ran into JC this afternoon. He didn't know about this fine, and when I told him about it, he laughed and wondered why he got hit with $750 and Onalfo only got $500!

WRONG.......AGAIN! If you think you can go to the media IN ANY LEAGUE and bash the ref then do yourself a favor and stop watching sports, cause you aren't learning a thing from it.

Owned. And to the guy Pachuco quoted: We really do not have freedom of speech in this country. See the charter "Hate Speech Laws", some of the most logical speech laws in the world.

Yep, 'tis true. We also restrict obscene media, which is another form of censorship if you look at it. We have free speech to a certain extent.

You certainly don't have it in the business world either (and MLS is a business). Try talking trash loud enough about your employer or people in your organization and see how long you last.
