The expletive-filled tirade Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Raheem Morris aimed at an official late in the second quarter of Sunday's loss at Miami cost Morris more than a touchdown.
Morris said he was fined $20,000 by the league for expressing his displeasure with the official's ruling on a play that at first appeared to be a catch by Michael Clayton but was reviewed and ruled an interception by Jason Taylor.
"You know I got fined,'' Morris said when asked about the fallout from that play. "I got fined and I'm more than happy to give my money to a charity of their choosing.
"That's just who I am. I'm fortunate enough to be in a society where I can be fined that much money and give it to a charity and move on and not hold a grudge. I learned my lesson. It was my fault. I made a mistake."
Morris was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct, which moved the ball half the distance to the goal to the Bucs 8-yard line. Two plays later, Miami scored a touchdown.
