I expect them to lose next year's 1st round pick and 2nd round pick as well as suspending their GM for the year since this was under Childress and not Zimmer.

Wow, Does this really surprise anyone? Even Jim Brown said on NFL Network that the Saints had gotten screwed regarding Bountygate.

Paraphrasing: Total Access Host: "So, Jim what do you think about the punishment handed down to the Saints"

Jim Brown: " I think that the poor Saints got hosed in this deal.....there have ALWAYS been bounties in the NFL. We always had them when I played, as well as after I played."

Total Access Host: Cuts off Brown and says "Okay we will be back following this short break"

I thought I was going to break my damn TV! I just wish more former players would have come out and defended the organization regarding this blatant hose job.

Every damn team was doing bounties and Goodell used Saints as the fall guy.
Let the ratings continue to decline.
The officiating of the game is terrible.
I get he wants to clean up the image and safety of the game but Goodell is a joke!
