The NFL is serious business.
Anyone who has ever watched an episode of 'Hard Knocks' will know exactly how intense that the pre-season campaign for NFL teams is, and in particular the team meetings where position by position the players meet and go over their playbooks in painstaking detail.
Sometimes you can be stuck in a meeting room for hours, and if you feel the urge to pass wind rumbling in your tummy, then you had better hold that thing in if you're a Denver Broncos player, as Broncos linebacker Von Miller revealed that the organisation are now fining him, and anyone else, who farts in team meetings.
Von Miller said the Broncos have a fine system for, um, flatulence in meetings. Said he thinks he's been fined the most.

Since I've received numerous inquires about the Broncos' Fart Tax, I'm gonna let Von explain. NFL dieting ain't easy. pic.twitter.com/OTAAaI8t82

They must have been pretty damn bad to force an introduction for fines.
There'll be no letting rip for the Denver football players this summer, unless they are willing to pay. Maybe we should introduce something similar in the Balls.ie offices... Just saying.
