Complex-
IMHO, an interesting question, and more based upon (at least from my perspective) the odd numbers (per Mav's post, 25k instead of 22,050).

Also, since I am unfamiliar with how the whole NFL FO review process works, perhaps they want Garvin and the Steelers to be put in a position of having to come in face to face and 'splain stuff. If, as Mav posted, the fine is more than Garvin's weekly paycheck, and the labor agreement doesn't provide for more than about 6k based on that, I suspect there's some politics being played here.

Just a guess....
