The NFL fined the New York Giants $150,000 and coach Ben McAdoo $50,000 for the illegal use of walkie-talkies during their Week 14 victory over the Dallas Cowboys, the league announced Tuesday.In addition, the Giants fourth-round pick in the 2017 NFL draft will fall a maximum of 12 spots in the fourth round and could drop below compensatory picks, depending on the spot the team will select from.The penalties were for a violation of the NFLs game operations policy. Coaches are not allowed to hold two-way radios during a game, because such radios are not capable of being cut off with 15 seconds remaining on the play clock.McAdoo was seen on the sideline holding the walkie-talkie when it was apparent the team was having trouble getting plays to quarterback?Eli Manning.One NFL source told ESPNs Adam Schefter that even though the Giants werent communicating with Manning within 15 seconds of the play clock ending, they had the opportunity to do it.Another NFL source told ESPN that people around the league think the Giants actions are a pretty big deal and a blatant disregard for a known rule for a competitive advantage.The league took into consideration that the Giants fully cooperated with the investigation and that it was their first violation of the policy.?McAdoo used the walkie-talkies for five plays in the Giants 10-7 victory over the Cowboys on Dec. 11 at MetLife Stadium. The drive ended when Manning threw an interception.The Cowboys did not file a formal complaint with the league, but with the violation being seen on the broadcast, the league almost immediately began looking into the situation.Cowboys executive Stephen Jones wouldnt confirm or deny last week that his team contacted the league about the matter.We dont comment on things like that, he said, but its obvious to everybody what happened, and my understanding is its being looked into and handled.Jones said the team believed the use of the walkie-talkies did not play a part in the outcome of the game.McAdoo said late last week the Giants were working with the league on the incident. He was unaware of any fine or penalty after the Giants finished practicing on Wednesday afternoon.He also said he hadnt thought about what would be an appropriate penalty, saying he was instead focused on the Giants game on Thursday night against the Philadelphia Eagles.McAdoo is in his first year as an NFL head coach. He spent two seasons as the Giants offensive coordinator after eight seasons as an assistant with the Green Bay Packers. Enrique Hernandez Jersey .

This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way.

Clayton Kershaw Jersey . -- When the Florida Panthers fell behind by two goals in the first period to the top team in the NHL, it appeared they were on their way to yet another loss. Manny Machado Jersey . Here are his mid-season NBA awards. MVP: (KEVIN DURANT-Thunder) - Has been sensational this season and more importantly, the most consistent player in the league. Considering that his team has been without star guard Russell Westbrook and with the free agent departure of sharpshooter Kevin Martin, hes had to carry the majority of the load to not only keep his team afloat but more importantly, at an elite level. CLEVELAND -- Andrew Cashner was acquired by the Marlins on July 29. Six starts and seven appearances later, he is still seeking his first win for them.The right-hander issued a career-high six walks Friday night, allowing six runs in five innings as the Cleveland Indians beat Miami 6-2. The third-place Marlins remained three games behind St. Louis for the final NL playoff spot.Cashner (4-11) threw 28 pitches before getting an out as the AL Central leaders scored three times in the first. The Indians tacked on a run in the second and two more in the fifth, sending the Marlins to their sixth loss in seven games.I was battling my fastball tonight and just never really got into a groove, said Cashner, who is 0-4 with a 5.57 ERA since joining Miami in a seven-player trade with San Diego. It was definitely a grind out there.J.T. Realmuto went 3 for 4, including a two-run homer in the eighth, and Destin Hood singled and doubled in his major league debut for the Marlins. Martin Prado added a pair of hits.To have my family here with me to share this experience really meant a lot, said the 26-year-old Hood, released by the Indians last July. I was actually really nervous, being in a much larger stadium, but it was a special night.Cleveland took advantage of Cashners inability to find the strike zone as he walked three in the first, including Mike Napoli with the bases loaded.One of the free passes occurred when Jason Kipnis was ruled to have checked his swing on a 3-2 pitch, which Miami manager Don Mattingly disagreed with from the dugout. Emotions remained high as first base coach Perry Hill was ejected in the ninth.God forbid that we complain about a call, a still-upset Mattingly said.Cashner, scratched from his previous tturn because of a blister on his pitching hand, has made nine appearances since his last win on July 15.dddddddddddd He fell to 0-6 with a 6.89 ERA on the road this year.After the first, I thought Cash was really good, Mattingly said. Its just tough because he threw 35 pitches to get out of that inning, which cost him the chance to go deeper in the game.Indians right-hander Carlos Carrasco (10-7) struck out 11 and scattered six hits over 7 1/3 shutout innings. Jeff Manship allowed Realmutos eighth homer of the season, which also scored Prado, the first Marlins runner to advance past second.Christian Yelich went 0 for 4, snapping his career-long streak of three straight games with a homer.RARE APPEARANCEThe Marlins are playing their third regular-season series at Progressive Field, previously visiting in 2004 and 2012. They also defeated the Indians in the 1997 World Series. This is a beautiful ballpark, Mattingly said. Ive always loved the view, with the city in the background.
