FOXBORO - I learned my times tables up to 12. As a result, I bludgeoned the numbers when computing 14,000 x 4 and came up with $90K. Maybe I should use a pencil and show my work when computing.

Either way, if the Pats are fining Deion Branch $14K per day during his holdout (as his agent Jason Chayut says he expects them to) he's up to $56,000 in fines.
