I wasn't aware he said that but I can't keep up with the number of interviews he makes regarding that hit, I know of at least three interviews but there are probably a dozen.

I respect Warner, as a person first, and 2nd as player but stop coming out and saying it was a legal hit. That is a fact and will remain so. Focus on why the hit happened. He threw the pick and then tried to get in the mix against superior size and strength. Nothing good can come out of that situation. So Bobby is suppose to gently nudge him out of the way when he is trained to take the QB down with authority. That is not going to happen on any team, bounty or no bounty.

I wish he would stop coming out and saying it was a legal hit. We already know that from the moment of impact. Start telling reporters you made an awful decision, so awful in fact, he wish he would have never even attempted to block.

Why would you attack a player that has come out on our side almost the entire time? Our allies are few and far between lately, if you hadn't noticed...

Does anyone else remember that, when Warner came back in, two or three Saints had a chance to really level him again but chose to pull up and even though contact was made, tried to hold him upright. If you can't remember and have the game and you should (shame on you if you don't), watch it and see...yeah, really looks like a bounty to me!

If that old lady was Betty White they'd have their hands full.

How many times since this started has he gone on air regarding that hit..I know of 3 and I know there are more. It was a legal hit, everyone knows this fact so the Saints don't need his blessing. We also know there is no evidence of of a bounty program that he can shed light on.

He's not contributing anything of value to the discussion. In fact, it's making the public perception of boutygate worse because everytime he goes on three things are mentioned; the hit, the Saints, and bounties. I've had several fans from other teams tell me..yeah but the hit on Warner, that's what got the Saints in trouble. I would think the same thing if I was watching Warner being intervied with the sound turned low or off. Is he doing these spots for free? That what I want to know.

Kurt Warner is the only player personally involved that works in the news media. All of his quotes came from his colleagues asking him about it on-air. If Brett Favre had gone to ESPN or NFLN then he would have just as many quotes. In fact, he almost does because the media did seek him out on multiple occasions and ask him. The reason it keeps coming up is because of the ESPN newsmakers, not Kurt. Chill out, dude.

I've heard Kurt on NFL radio several times and there isn't one single appearance that I didn't agree with him for the most part on every single queation he was asked.

This world needs more Kurt Warners.
