Conversation with my wife
My darling wife who has trouble really understanding the game but is as passionate about the Saints as I am asked a series of simple questions about this whole thing
She: Did we really hurt anybody? Me: Uhh no... Brett Favre had a badly strained ankle She: Don't they have rules for late hits?" Me; Uhhh yea they do She: Well then why didn't the officials (she called them umpires bless her heart) throw a flag? Me: Uhhh Well because the hits were not illegal She: Didn't some guy on another team get suspended for dirty play? Me: Yea there have been a few guys that have been She: How many of our guys got suspended for dirty play? Uhhh well none She: Oh ok... So what again is it that we did wrong??? Me: Uhh well you see we had this bounty system that well.. uhh.. you see we talked about.... and there were...well you see we lied about some things.... I don't know... watch your damned Lifetime Channel.... you are too logical for all of this She: Well if all guys were suspended for lying.. Me... Don't go there |

This is so true. I understand that the defense used this bount system as a motivation tool in the locker room, but was anyone ever really get rewarded for these types of hits? Did any ever really occur?
