This.
If this happened to the Falcons. I would be happy because they would have the possibility of losing draft picks, I would not be calling them thugs. Although 8 out of 10 people playing in the NFL are really thugs, just not because they pay each other to hit rivals harder. BTW I wouldnt call yourself a fan, any real fan would support the orginization in a time like this no matter what they had done. Think of it as being your child doing this, would you call him or her a thug and shun them?

Not the same thing at all. Maybe if someone had the intent to speed and run someone over and never did.

I can think of no times when a football player deserved to be called a hero during a game.

Good riddance. You must have become a fan in 2006 like so many others.

Exactly, so if anything people can just choose to not like the saints anymore as people but I hardly think they did anything illegal or worthy of penalties.
If people think everyone on any NFL team is a "high character" guy then they are fooling themselves.
This didn't give them an unfair advantage, and again, no opposing player missed any time.

at least no one on our team killed any animals in the process. Michael Vick scarred the Falcons franchise for a very long time.

I wouldn't expect any Saints fans to suddenly turn on their team. But everyone has to acknowledge that paying guys to get other players carted off the field crosses a line.

I disagree. I think he scarred himself. Can't see the Falcons deserve any of the blame.

No we don't. Paying guys to knock other players out of the game through extralegal means or dirty tactics I would say is out of line. If it comes out that that was the case then I will absolutely condemn it.
But delivering legal hits that knock a player out of the game? That's what football is.
I remember when there was some controversy over somebody talking about knocking Tebow out of the game. Someone on LSU as I recall. I had no problem with that either as it was about delivering legal shots.
Bama fans and the media were bragging on Bama's D at one point for knocking so many quarterbacks out of games. I had no problem with that either.
They broke rules with the bounty thing, but it's not anything that I am going to condemn as immoral.

I think my problem is that rewarding a big hit is one thing, but rewarding a player specifically for having a guy carted off the field is a whole other issue.
Posted on 3/3/12 at 6:47 pm to lsu223
And that's what I hope to see in these "18,000 pages of documents". I want to see exactly what amounts were offered for which things and I also want to see who collected because, for the upteenth time I've said this, no one was carted off. The bounty system has been acknowledged however I need more proof that it was for these so called "cartoffs" as opposed to just big hits, INTs, etc as Sharper claims.

FIFY. And glad to have one less bandwagon fan.

I don't see why. It's a logical correlation and positive result of a big hit. If I knock a starter out of the game with a big hit, I help our team win the game. The only issue is are the hits illegal/malicious? If you go for a guy's knee or joints to injure, that is something different in my mind. A clean pop on a receiver over the middle or on Kurt Warner while he's trying to tackle a ball carrier is different IMO. Why do you think teams value big hits? To hurt and put fear in the other team.
If you twist ankles or gouge in a pile you are being a scumbag IMO.
