The Vitamin Water hat that Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher wore at Super Bowl media day -- the hat that caused the NFL to fine him $100,000 -- can now be yours on eBay. Some employees of a Chicago radio station got the hat from Urlacher, and they were discussing on the air what they wanted to do with it. A woman named Crystal Stupar called in and said she was pregnant and that her husband is in Afghanistan, and that they could use the money from selling the hat. So the radio station gave the hat to Stupar. Here's how she describes it at the auction site:
You are bidding on the actual hat Brian Urlacher wore during the Super Bowl Media Day. I obtained this hat through a contest from B96 a Chicago, IL. Radio Station, where Brian Urlacher donated the hat. The Authentic Vitaminwater Hat, that Brian Urlacher was fined $100,000 by the NFL for wearing during Super Bowl Media Day. He was promoting a sponsor not authorized by the league. This is the first time such a fine has been levied. This is an all black hat with the word vitaminwater on the front inside a yellow and white bottle, the back of the hat has the same bottle with vitaminwater in it also. This hat is a fitted hat with the size 7 3/4 tag on the inside.

Why does'nt the "No Fun League" fine Brian $100,000 for wearing Nike shoes? They're not the official shoe of the N.F.L ? Do drugs, carry guns, beat your wife, just dont mess with their money.
