Los Angeles (AFP) - St. Louis Rams wide receiver Stedman Bailey said Wednesday he had been fined after pretending to take a nap in the end zone after scoring a touchdown against the Arizona Cardinals.

The 24-year-old celebrated his third quarter touchdown in the Rams' 24-22 victory by dropping to the ground, using the ball as a pillow and feigning sleep.
