I think its mostly about setting precedents. If you allow hidden cell phones and other props, whos to say where it will end.
Pro atheletes aren't exactly known for their restraint. Next may come folding chairs over the head and spitting blood. And nothing could be said because no rules had been set. Thats what rules are about.
I saw nothing wrong with what Carr and Mckinney did. But I guess someone did and they have the right to appeal, which I'm sure they will. Most likely the fines will be rescinded.
I just don't understand whats wrong with scoring and showing some respect for the sport and your opponents by showing just a little restraint. Act like you've been there before. Get on with the game without a 5 minute comedy routine.
