New Orleans Saints players have appeals hearing set for today 05/16/12 3:07AM

Considering what's at stake, some histrionics might be expected today in New York when the players suspended by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell pursue one of their three-pronged appeals. After all, suspensions without pay matter, even to the wealthy. New Orleans Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma, for instance, has been paid many millions of dollars to play football, but that doesn't mean a full year's salary loss, in Vilma's case roughly $2.2 million, isn't a serious hit.

... I'm thinking it may be getting to the point where this may very well be Goodell's only, and possibly best, option ... they say 'life imitates art', or is it the other way around? ... anyhoo, just think of Sean Payton or Vilma as being Roger's "Andy Dufresne",
