He made it pretty clear that the Saints did that too. Olin Kruetz could have done it too... But I only say that because he's Mr. "Oh so you're going to bench me because I suck?! Well then I quit!"

The only problem with these people is, it said someone brought this up in 2010 and then backed out. Then came back in 2011 with actual proof. So if this is true, it is somebody still on this team or atleast was on the team last year.

If it is illegal....whay aren't the refs paying attention to the infraction. If a complaint is made to the league and the refs do not follow up and call the penalties and PAY ATTENTION.....then this bounty crap argument is MOOT

This whole thing is gonna blow over. Just like "spygate" or whatever the hell it was did for the patriots, and it WAS actually proven.

Again... Show me where players were rewarded for executing on said bounties.

Otherwise, it's a motivating tactic made by the DC to get his players in the game.

i mean, My God - it's not like we had the defensive stats to back it up.. :whatever:

EXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXACTLY!!

I wanna know who wrote that 50,000 page 'novel'?

This is just ammo for the SAINTS to go out this year and win it all out right. This way there would be no doubts that the SAINTS are champions. !!!WHO DAT!!!! The NFL is turning into a bunch of sissy's if you ask me. If a player is afraid to make a hit it completely hinders them from giving it there all. Each player has the fine they are going to get in the back of there minds when they are on the field now. I wonder if the fans can protest the league rules on this? This mine as well be two hand touch football. Go out there, take your hits, and be a man about it. Isn't that what footbal was all about?

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! MUCHO GRACIAS!! MERCI BON AMI!!!!

There are so many holes in this 50,000+ page 'novel' that the No Fun League has cooked up. If any of those hit were ILLEGAL, how come the "Striped Storm Troopers" did not call it right on the spot? Like SaintsFan1976 said earlier, SHOW US THE PROOF!!! If it's true, who was responsible for putting it out there? If the Saints really want to put out a bounty, they would have taken out the entire team, including the cheerleaders, the owner, the GM, the cat, the dog and the goldfish.

Mr. Goodell, if it's true like you say it is, show us the unadulterated proof. If not, please sit down and ESTEEFFYOO!!!

No bounty, had anything to do, with us winning that superbowl.... Even if, they carry on with this bs, you can't penalize the entire team for it. It had nothing to do with the plays carried out on the field....

The issue isn't how many, if any, players the Saints injuried, or how much, if any, money was paid to players.

The problem is that a bounty problem was in place to intentionally injure players for money.

If the report that Vilma put $10K cash on the table and said it was for knocking Favre out of the '09 NFCC, then he is phucked like a Chuck. I could see the Saints releasing him and saying it was for his role in this.
