Mike Florio Calls Bullshinski on Bountygate and the NFL's Beatdown on the Saints

Well, Florio is definitely throwing a bone to Saints fans and warning other teams' fans they can be next...

I was watching some old NFL Films clips the other day. Just about every play would be considered a penalty in today's game. I'm glad we're protecting the players more, but some of today's rules are ridiculous.

I remember the Saints had a WR named Keith Poole years ago. Man that guy would go over the middle and get lit up. I remember watching it a few times. I would cringe. I don't remember who the QB was....Everett or Brooks...one of the Billy Jo's...but man I remember seeing him get laid out.

In today's NFL the defenders would be ejected for hits like that. Lol.

one of the Billy Joe's, Poole was gone before 2000

Actually Florio was calling BS even then on this when events unfolded; he was about the only one doing so...

Florio did speak up 4 years ago. The NFL didn't want to hear it.
