[QUOTE="longtimefan, post: 189064, member: 145"] [url]http://www.usatoday.com/sports/football/nfl/patriots/2007-11-28-nfl-insider-patriots_N.htm[/url] The money collected from the fines goes into a pot, Bruschi and Seymour said, that is dispersed after the following game. In the defense's case, the cash is typically awarded to the player who comes up with the first turnover. "So we want a guy to be late," Seymour joked, "to get that pot up." And messing up a technique in practice? "That's a demerit," Seymour said. "More money in the pot." In Sunday night's win against Philadelphia, cornerback Asante Samuel returned an interception for a 40-yard touchdown on the opening possession. Said Seymour, "Asante got a nice little stash." Players wouldn't reveal exactly how much was in the pot last week, but Bruschi said that it was subject to dispute. A player — whom Bruschi would only identify as a "veteran" — was late for a meeting and disagreed on how much money he was to be docked. Veteran players, including team captains, huddled and set the amount. How late was he? "That was the dispute," Bruschi said. "How many minutes was he late and how much should be put in the pot."
