Saints should sit the season out in protest.

Goodell wants to levy a draconian punishment, the Saints should reply in kind.

It would cost the league millions of dollars in lost revenue!

That's just plain silly. We got off light. Let's just move on and win it all.

I'm not sure about that, but I certainly don't think NOLA should be expected to host the Super Bowl under these circumstances. Talk about awkward!!! Maybe we can flip flop years with Miami or another city.

Uhh... no.

No again.

And uhh... no again.

Basically,

What's the big deal? So Payton won't be coaching this season. We still have the team to beat.

Got off light?

You really consider SP being suspended for a %$E%$ YEAR is light!!

Is Goodell going to go after all the other teams that admitted they ARE paying for fumble recoveries, sacks, interceptions, etc.?

The way we need to respond in kind is to win the flaming Superbowl in our own building and kick everyone's ### in the process, running up the score whenever possible.

What's the big deal? Are you serious? This is unwarranted. Period. This isn't about the integrity of the game. This is about a looming court case. Are you really so glossed over with your cup half-full that you don't see that?

Sorry, I simply do not see this as insurmountable. Y'all can slink back into the past and pity yourselves if you wish, but I'm going to keep looking ahead and expect the best from this team. I have no doubt the players and remaining coaches will rally around this situation and play their asses off.
