This spells it out pretty well
 
It likely will take months for the Saints’ bounty scandal to be completely put to bed, but this much is certain: They are in a bunch of trouble, and the penalties may make Spygate look like a tampering charge.

In more ways than one, these Saints were sinners - The Boston Globe

The third page couldn't have said it better about the Brees contract situation.

"Condon works for him, and the contract is Brees’s call."

Exactly, which is why he needs to fire his butt.

Something stinks here. And it smells like GW left a turd here when he went to the Rams.

I agree.... No press short of our own in N.O., will be unbiased on what "they think" the penalties should be.... Go to any open NFL forum, where all teams are discussed, and you will see, every other teams fans, have their pitchforks in one hand, and their torch in the other.... Screw em....

This is how I feel about the situation:

We're the bad guys now. And, like it or not, it's time to embrace our role. I was always a defensive-minded guy. Even in little league, I threw elbows and played dirty. That's what competitiveness is about. It's always been there at every level. It might not be "right", but it is what it is.

People are fans of other teams. And, any time they can find a legit reason to hate another team, they will jump at the chance. This whole ordeal is practically a witch hunt. You have people saying that they don't actually think the Saints should get hit hard, but they still WANT them to - simply because it's not their team and they want to see their opponents hurt.

When you stink, nobody cares about you. We're an elite team. We have been for the past few years. That means people are going to have opinions. They're either going to love us or hate us. And now, they have a reason to hate us.

So, let them hate us. We're the bad guys now. Somebody's gotta do it and I don't mind that it's our team. Yeah, we're mean. We're nasty. We want to break you. We're the dirtiest players in the game (even though we may not actually be). Embrace it. No apologies.

And, when we go out there, crush faces, and win another championship.. we'll let out an evil laugh and rub it in everyone's faces.


I realize my opinion isn't the popular one... but maybe it should be.

I agree with you, and I was always the same in sports.

I don't care what other people think about the Saints - not before and certainly not now - but what concerns me are the possible repercussions of this investigation, which may deter the Saints from being as competitive next season.

BoudinSandwich 03-05-2012 05:35 AM

lol
Maybe it's because I watched too much Ric Flair growing up?

(Sorry, I don't mean to spam videos.) I think the Saints PR should release a statement similar to Flair's in this video.

Agreed. I think our team can handle pretty much every thing and still make a championship run or two in the next handful of years. The only thing that really concerns me is if we take hits to our salary cap.
