Mike Cerullo outed by NFL as the whistleblower
 

League produces Cerullo declaration fo Vilma | ProFootballTalk
The NFL finally has outed the whistleblower.

After months of blurring the line between reasonably protecting persons who provided information confidentially and unreasonably shielding key witnesses from scrutiny, the league produced a declaration from former Saints assistant coach Mike Cerullo to Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma during Monday’s marathon meeting at 345 Park Avenue, according to Albert Breer of NFL.com.

Per Breer, Cerullo’s declaration contradicts portions of Gregg Williams’ declaration.

Hopefully, we’ll eventually have a chance to compare and contrast the allegations and explanations. Until then, the significant news is that the league has fully embraced its do-over, dramatically reversing course on a stubborn refusal to disclose Cerullo’s name.

Vilma’s lawsuit challenging his initial suspension contends that Cerullo blew the whistle, and that Cerullo had pledged revenge against the Saints and specifically assistant head coach Joe Vitt after Cerullo was fired in 2010. Cerullo had maintained a low profile throughout the bounty investigation.

Roger just wants Vilma's lawsuit to focus on someone else. He's now trying to throw yet another body under the bus to protect himself and his agenda. What a douchnozzle.

Re: Mike Cerullo outed by NFL as the whistleblower
 

Yea someone who vowed revenge against the Saints is the main person they have as their star witness to launch a investigation. Yea right.

There are currently HOW MANY different stories?

How long will it take Der Kommisar to twist them all to fit his version of the truth?

From a July story on PFT:

Re: Mike Cerullo outed by NFL as the whistleblower
 

@Edwerderespn:
Source: Vilma's rep serves Williams supoena


New Orleans Saints -- Jonathan Vilma's rep serves Gregg Williams subpoena, source says - ESPN



Knew that was coming....LOL

Did everyone hear that?

It was the sound of all the owner's hands simultaneously striking their foreheads

Greg Williams and Mike Cerello served today with subpoenas by Vilmas lawyer.

Re: Mike Cerullo outed by NFL as the whistleblower
 

GTFOH.... the article says Williams did not want to talk to the media.....! Wonder why?

My guess is he has been instructed not to talk to the media.Why let him speak out and risk him tying himself into a story.
I get him not wanting to loose the chance to coach again,but no team will touch him now.Far too much baggage and the front offices will be aware that no coach/player will ever trust him not to rat them out.He should have kept his mouth shut and he may have got another job.

as a fan I find this whole bounty crap a distaction from the thing i love the most..MY SAINTS...no freakin wonder the Saints are playing like ****. How in the world can they focus if its hard to even focus as a fan.

between the bounty scandel, Drews whole contract dilemma, around every corner someone has to answer a question about how they are doing without Sean Payton..etc etc

I just dont see the saints focusing enough to pull out a winning season..

I HATE roger godell for what he has done to us.

I'll have to put up the Wanted poster.

I hope for his sake and family that he's no where in the NOLA!!!!
whistleblower, snitch, confidential informant there all the same
His revenge cost the fans, city, team and state - he needs to lay low!!!

Re: Mike Cerullo outed by NFL as the whistleblower
 

Remember elementary school kickball when there was always that one kid that NEVER thought he was out or that the rules were "not fair" or "not right"? He would then proceed to try to snitch and rat out every other kid who he thought and felt had wronged him. During class, he would reach for any little straw he could grab to get those other kickball kids in trouble with the teacher and/or principle as his form of revenge?

Meet Mike Cerullo, that sucky little whiny kickball kid. He never advanced past the third grade emotionally. Mike, may a gigantic frisky gorilla make you his prom date in the very, very near future. And bring Roger with you.

Re: Mike Cerullo outed by NFL as the whistleblower
 

I can't wait to hear Williams explanation. I have a feeling he gave his statement in fear of not being able to coach any longer. Goodell is really stretching himself thin and Vilma (even though at first was very brash) has played this very well overall.

Re: Mike Cerullo outed by NFL as the whistleblower
 

I wonder if Cerullo is still upset about his cubic zirconia Super Bowl ring...:clown:

Re: Mike Cerullo outed by NFL as the whistleblower
 

Cerullo may well be wishing it was real, so he could try to pawn it for the upcoming legal fees...
