Roger fricked over the remainder of Anthony Hargrove's career because he said you could clearly see in the video that he said "give me my money."

And you want me to believe that he warned the Saints multiple times because he said so? Yeah, right.

Further, of the 150 pages, maybe 10 could possibly be relevant to a bounty.

Even that is a stretch though

Then they had the audacity to discredit Vitts testimony saying he didn't tell the whole truth

Head coach violations should be taken more seriously than a player

Bounty Program...no

Pay for Play Funded by Players(Not coaches)...yes(Not deflecting but several other teams did it too during that time(and for years prior per other NFL players and coaches)

Should we have been punished...yes

Should we have forfeited draft picks...sure

Should the Franchise pay a fine...ok

Should a HC be suspended for an entire season the longest suspension in the History of the NFL for a HC for this transgression...I am thinking scapegoat and No.

Especially when Vehicular Manslaughter, DWI's, Domestic Abuse, or any combination only gets you a 2-4 game suspension at this time...Just saying.

The Patriots did something they weren't supposed to. Am I ignorant enough to think they were the only ones doing it? No. I also believe Taglibue didn't care that teams did this, as Jimmy Johnson admitted to doing this when he was an assistant and head coach.

It was put out there that Goodell wasn't going to put up with it, yet the Patriots continued. They got caught red handed, and in the wrong. The punishment was justified.

A team busted for tampering with Adrian Peterson and having the head of officiating in their "party bus."

Think they're gonna get punished? And they have proof on both of these and still nothing will happen.

bounty gate is over for us, if fans could put aside their team hates/likes, they'd agree that goodell is hurting the product they love and making the NFL less about football and more about public relations

it's a shame...I find myself less interested during the game. I was so pumped, but when it started, I was kind of even keel

I was more pumped during the Tulane/GT game.

His stewardship has already ruined the entire offseason for me, but now my lack of interest is starting to seep into the actual games. I didn't watch one lick of MNF...MNF is the only thing I'll ever watch on ESPN, but I do it with incredible regularity and enthusiasm

I watched the real housewives of Melbourne instead

frick goodell, he needs to go

I love how when Vilma threatened to sew for defamation, and when he and the players union stood up to Goodell, he backed down. On top of that, when the players demanded that Goodell show concrete evidence, he initially refused, and the tiny insignificant evidence that he did actually show did absolutely nothing to connect Saints players and coaches to a bounty scandal. Goodell was trying to strong arm the Saints, and his accusations were proven to have no basis to stand on. Payton and Williams would have gotten off, had the coaches had a union to back them up as well. Goodell is a joke.

Tell me EXACTLY and UNDENIABLY how you know this is true.

You're the one who saw the 50,000 pages of evidence, I guess

Here it is, the NFL released it:

And of those 200 pages, maybe 10 are related to bounties.



Sure had a lot of head shots not called by the NFL
