They are only going to fine the Titans for their DC's comments that were on the same level as their main "bounty evidence":

I'm still waiting for the outrage against the Titans for this. This was uttered almost three weeks ago, and word is that the NFL will merely fine them.

"If you are worrying about that, you are not going to go out and try and blow the guy up," Gray told The Tennessean on Thursday. "Great football players have to put that out of their mind. You have to say, 'This is my territory between the numbers, and if you throw the football you better bring the Gator truck.' And that's how you have to play. You can't play timid in the NFL."
The Gator is a vehicle teams use to take injured players off the field.

I hope Vilma's attorney is on top of this story which I imagine he is. To me, this is by far, more damaging than anything the Saints did.

My question to King and the other media members is this:
If there was scant evidence in June, why didn't you say so back then? Why, when you published your cover story in MARCH, did you not DEMAND evidence from the league? The league made an extraordinary claim, and extraordinary claims demand extraordinary evidence. The burden of proof is on the league, yet the media has and continues to give them a pass on that.
Out of all of the shite that came from the "bounty" scandal, THIS is what pisses me off the most.

I'll be interested in seeing if Tagliabue finds significant evidence of a bounty system. When the league showed several reporters the evidence in June, there was a load of pay-for-performance exhibits but few that purportedly provide intent to injure, or to entice players to injure. I hear the league has some evidence in that regard it hasn't shown -- and if that's the case, Tagliabue will have the ability to review and use such data in his decision-making process.
