But yeah, he cheated.

It was just an observation from the link. I believe that just like pitchers in MLB, QBs do things to get a competitive advantage. I also believe that like the MLB, if a QB gets caught, he should be punished...

And I'm well aware of Blake's "career arc" with the Saints. His injury paved the way for a couple years of the best QB play the Saints had seen in a decade, if not ever imo. I still wonder what could have been with Blake though...

Ironically, despite hatching "Bountygate (2009-11)" the New Orleans Saints are one of the few NFL teams who, this decade, have not had a player suspended or penalized more than $25,000 for a cheap shot or dirty tactics. Jimmy Graham dunked a football over the goalpost and was hit with a $30,000 fine, but that's about it...besides the whole Bountygate-thing, that is.

Ironically? as in, 'we've proven that you did this, but you never did it so badly that it was fined'.
