Real Salt Lake: MLS doubles fine for Kreis' comments
Two months after rehearsed critical comments about MLS officiating earned Kreis a $1,000 fine and a one-game suspension, the league threw down the gauntlet Thursday afternoon to the tune of $2,000 and a two-game suspension for Kreis' postgame comments with last weekend's game.
Obviously the league doesn't believe Kreis learned his lesson.
Following last Saturday's 0-0 draw with Houston, Kreis went into his press conference no doubt expecting to be critical of the officiating, which prompted him to say "if you guys want to pitch in a little fund for my fine that would be a good idea" as he approached the podium.
