...while in the midst of an investigation on the bounty scandal? Does this strike anyone else as somewhat odd? Not that the Hall of Fame game is some marquee match-up, but it is the first preseason game and is nationally televised.

Just seems somewhat odd to me. Am I missing something here?

Obviously Roger knew about an investigation long before the selection

Teams picked before announcement of scandal, but thi was allegedly some big investigation so 3 weeks or so ago I would imagin they had some idea of what the findings were.

Well what if he chose not to pick the Saints for the HOF game? You would have started a thread saying Goodell is tampering with the league/hates the Saints blah blah blah

Then wed be in the same position as we are now

The Saints offered to be in the HOG game so they could be part of Roaf's HOF induction

Roafs HOF election should be vacated b/c of the heinous bounty program

So virtually what the Saints were doing was talking like Joey Porter and Channing Crowder have done every week the last 3 years except behind closed doors. Pussified tweety bird league.
