I pray other bounty programs are exposed so this can blow up in the NFL's face.

By nuking the Saints, the NFL is playing a very dangerous game.

If the big spot light on bounty programs leads to other bounty programs being exposed, this shite's gonna get outta hand quick because the punishment standard has been set and will have to be applied in subsequent situations.

Banning from the NFL, year long suspensions for the HC and haven't even gotten to player suspensions yet. shite could blow up in the NFLs face and I hope that happens.

You can bet your arse that when all of this broke that any evidence that could be destroyed was. Now that ppl around the league have seen how harsh these penatlies are, no one will talk now. The ones who might would will be bought off with money under the table.

I heard reports from former players that they have NEVER EVER heard of any team which gave bonuses for injuring players. This is not a common practice and is about an egregious an act as you can committ in the NFL.

Any future "bounty" programs are going to be downplayed to the extreme.

The penalties inflicted on the Saints have made the NFL a safer place.

Just wait until the defensive players on the saints teams are punished! They will get pissed and squeal on every team they ever played for. Loomis, Williams and Payton have been told to shut the f up and toe the NFL line or never work again. The players will be another matter!

Honestly, man, I think it just gives Goodell moral high ground to bring the hammer down if others come out of the woodworks.

I LOOOOOVE the Saints, but I can't rhyme or reason the two years of lying after the man said, "I know what you are up to. Knock it off."
