[QUOTE="ARPackFan, post: 910346, member: 9355"] I'm a bit confused as to what you are trying to say. The only fines Rodgers can incur as part of missing mandatory training camps are in the CBA @ $50K a day. These fines cannot be waived by an NFL team and would in fact be a breach of the CBA. The mandatory camps this year subject to these fines are June 15-17 and the preseason camp beginning late July/early August. I don't believe theses fines would be a deterrent as he could skip all camps, pay the fines somewhere between $1.5 & $2M, show up the week before of the first game and still make $35M for the year. From the CBA: [I] Unexcused late reporting for or absence from preseason training camp by a player under contract except those signed as (1) an Unrestricted Free Agent pursuant to Article 9; or (2) a Drafted or Undrafted Rookie pursuant to Article 7—mandatory fine of $50,000 per day. For the avoidance of doubt, any such fines shall be mandatory, and shall not be reduced in amount or waived by the Club, in whole or in part, but must be paid by the player or deducted by the Club as provided in Section 5(b) of this Article. For purposes of this Subsection (vi) and Subsections (vii)-(ix) below, preseason training camp shall be defined as the period beginning with the mandatory reporting date for any player through the Sunday immediately preceding the first game of the NFL regular season.[/I] [/QUOTE]
