The above photo of Minnesota WR Stefon Diggs and New Orleans coach Sean Payton went viral after the Vikings beat the Saints on Wild Card Weekend. Diggs never addressed the photo that caused quite a response, until now...

quote:
“It was kinda a picture worth a thousand words. But it didn't happen like that. I have a lot of respect for him as a coach. I would never intentionally disrespect any coach."

Here's video to give you the full context in when the picture was taken. You can clearly see the photo was just bad timing...

“Typical”

Lol, bad timing my arse. They wanted to make that a thing, so they did. Was it the Saints media to get the fans heated, was it Vikes media to hope them up, or was it just the NFL starting controversy like always?

Kind of like Sean mocking SKOL in Minnesota before Diggs ripped the soul out of NOLA for the year?

Sad how the truth can't be found today in most things because so many people have agendas. I'm glad to see the truth happen. That person who put that picture needs to be............. This is just like in politics today. I'm glad Stefon Diggs was redeemed.

The sad part about all of this in society is the time, money, effort and stress it takes to get to the truth.

Looking at the video, there must have been a 0.2 second window for that picture to turn out like that.

I guarantee the guy who took the picture knew it was a mistake but could not help trying to grab attention.

Truth means nothing to the media.
