When DeAngelo Hall isn’t getting absolutely torched by elite NFL receivers he enjoys hurting his team in other ways, such as having mental breakdowns during crunch time in the second half.

During Sunday’s game versus the Carolina Panthers, DeAngelo Hall was penalized 67 yards on a single drive. Steve Smith got inside the cornerbacks head and it was downhill from there. In addition to jawing with receivers, teammates and officials, Hall also mixed it up with coach Bobby Petrino. Word came down that Hall would receive a “significant penalty” which led many to believe he would be suspended, but at the end of the day Hall is expected to be fined a little over $100,000

Cornerback DeAngelo Hall will not be suspended by Atlanta officials, ESPN.com has learned, but will be sanctioned with what one league source termed a “pretty steep” fine for his actions in the Falcons’ 27-20 loss to the Carolina Panthers last Sunday.

Sources said the fine will be for less than one full game-check, which based on Hall’s base salary of $3.11 million for 2007, would have amounted to $182,941. But the penalty levied by the Falcons will still be in the low six-figure range.

After being abused, it makes watching this video of Hall bragging on his skills that much funnier.
