He vacated the punishments because when he was the commish he ok'd pay for performance programs under as long as the players put in their own money and some other stipulations. I can't remember it all, but you can find the old espn story on youtube.

Goodell goofed and Tags knew it. Goodell lucked out when the judge threw out Vilma's suit, but the rift between the NFL and the players is way wider now. They don't trust him because of the way he handled the whole thing.

At least this makes sense, unlike what everyone else is saying. And I agree about the way Goodell handled the whole thing. Guy should be fired or just quit. But me saying this won't change the fact that I'm a traitor because I can be objective about all of this.

The truth is, I don't care about any of it. The Saints won the Super Bowl and nothing will change that. They could have been the dirtiest team ever, and I wouldn't care. Most of the best franchises through history or known to have some form of cheating.

Is this what you are talking about Paddy?

The reports, now nearly 16 years old, include players from other teams discussing similar pools climbing into the thousands of dollars. In one report by ESPN, Troy Vincent, then a defensive back with Philadelphia, discusses a similar player-funded incentive program run by Eagles players.

Vincent now works for the NFL as a vice president overseeing player engagement.

In the reports, an NFL spokesman is quoted as saying the incentive programs are permitted as long as players use their own money and the amounts players pledge are not exorbitant.


And while we are talking about the Packers running a bounty program: LINK

It's too bad that the Saints aren't one of the league favorites.
