Titans Coach Flips Bird at Refs: Tennessee Titans defensive coordinator Chuck Cecil gave a one-fingered salute to the officials during the team's 26-20 loss to the Denver Broncos Sunday. Unlike Titans owner Bud Adams last season, Cecil did not follow it with a "you, yes, I mean you."

That franchise needs to get Buddy Ryan and Kevin Gilbride back on the sidelines to restore some sense of decency and respect over there.

That's just good communication skills.

Unsurprisingly, this part has not been edited out of the game on the NFL Rewind site. So subscribers can see it in HD there.

Umm, that was supposed to be "surprisingly" - there's no way I expected the NFL to leave that shot in their official coverage.

The coordinator was just fined $40,000 for the gesture. Seems that he was also fined for making comments about the officials last year.
