General managers only have so many people above them in the NFL hierarchy. A team owner is one. The league office is another place you don’t want to mess with.

According to a report from Don Banks of SI.com, Saints G.M. Mickey Loomis got caught lying to both Saints owner Tom Benson and those conducting the NFL’s internal investigation of the Saints’ bounty program.

Loomis reportedly was asked about the Saints’ bounties in 2010 and denied knowing anything about it. He then ignored Benson’s orders to discontinue to program if it existed.

You can tell the difference between Romney supporters and Obama supporters by which side of the check they sign. Romney supporters sign the front of their checks............

Pro Football Talk is a rag. The TMZ of the NFL... And Mike Florio is a drama queen.

Loomis will protect Benson, get a slap on the wrist and chastised "wink-wink" by Benson.

It will however continue to be our own version of the Pats spygate.

Spygate is cheating, bounty gate is ugly. That's the difference the way I see it

The Saints Defense has been mediocre for a long time. The Saints got no competitive advantage from the scheme, so, the punishments should NOT include measures that would harm the Saints competitiveness.

There should be some fines and maybe Loomis needs to be fired. That would not be a big loss in my humble opinion.
