New Intolerance Rules risky for Saints?

I applaud the efforts by the League to police the destructive and embarrassing behaviors of a clear minority of players and general team personnel. It is about time and befuddling why this kind of thing hasn't been introduced before or why it's the NFL that instigates this.

Anyway, given the number of distractions in New Orleans, is it more likely that there will be more problems within the Saints organization or is it more a function of the basic character of the members of the orgainzation? In other words, is it Nature or Nurture?

PS, glad the site's back up. Jonesing for a vent fix.

Not with coach peyton at the helm

He seems so focused on high character guys that I think the off the filed proplems will be few and far between in the big easy.

I like the intolerance rules myself and you cant blame the city of New Orleans for how people act.

Henry and Jones had it coming if you ask me, this is not just an NFL thing. Believe me I'm a WV guy and if I could stick up for them I would. They had repeated incidents at WVU. The way they acted shouldn't have come to much of a surprise. This is why you draft quality people, their problems didn't spring up with they hit the pros.

no tolerance is the only way to go......
i think if pac messes up once while under suspension, he should be banned for life and made an example of...........
this way, people will think twice about their careers in the nfl and what a privilege it is to not only have a job, but be able to make millions at it...
isn't it china and perhaps other countries that chop the hand/arm off if you're caught stealing..........and isn't the crime rate low because of it, same way with the death sentence for certain crimes such as dealers?

anyway, i heard the saints signed lb troy evans from houston..........smitty
