Plaintiff: Saints GM Mickey Loomis was covering up pill abuse
 

NEW ORLEANS — Geoff Santini says at first he wanted to save the Super Bowl champion New Orleans Saints from themselves in the Vicodin controversy.

But then, the Saints former chief of security since 2000 decided to sue the team for lost wages and other damages. He claims general manager Mickey Loomis asked him to participate in a cover-up.

"I thought I had saved it. I thought we had it (the felony theft of prescription Vicodin from the Saints' medicine cabinet and subsequent cover-up) stopped," the ex-FBI agent said last week in his only extended interview since filing a lawsuit on April 30.

Man o man

Re: Plaintiff: Saints GM Mickey Loomis was covering up pill abuse
 

Who does this guy think he is? he claim he was trying to "SAVE" someone.. he seems like he has this high and mighty attitude about him, i think he's going to try and drag this out, he wanted money and in this report he never stated he was trying to extort money but that was the case..

Now he's trying to take the entire team down with him, he's ticking me off!!
And this doesn't seem like it's just going to go away anytime soon, CRAP!

This could get ugly fast.

Re: Plaintiff: Saints GM Mickey Loomis was covering up pill abuse
 

I hope im wrong ..but ive been hearing form different people that Loomis would be the one to take a fall on this...I hope like hell im wrong and this is settled in court and our F.O is cleared...

Re: Plaintiff: Saints GM Mickey Loomis was covering up pill abuse
 

it's a NEW article, but not breaking news. No charges have been filed and the DEA has known about this since last June. I wouldn't be surprised if other than a civil suit, nothing comes of this.

Re: Plaintiff: Saints GM Mickey Loomis was covering up pill abuse
 

Not saying Saints are guilty, but can't we just pay Santini off and make him STFU?

Re: Plaintiff: Saints GM Mickey Loomis was covering up pill abuse
 

I think it's too late for that now that the DEA is involved. What a POS this Santini Fuc*$r is! He is talking out of both sides of his mouth, trying to help the team? Yeah right. That's why you tried to extort money the second you saw the opportunity. He should be the one in trouble. Not to mention the fact that he's already been proven to be a liar...in the Edwin Edwards trial.

This guy needs a beatin'

Re: Plaintiff: Saints GM Mickey Loomis was covering up pill abuse
 

May sound nit-picky, but whatever happened to posting entire articles around here? lol Does B&G.com make money for clicking on stories? I'm asking bc I really don't know....

(and "bite me", in advance, for any snide remarks lol)

Re: Plaintiff: Saints GM Mickey Loomis was covering up pill abuse
 

( Because B&G.com like any forum site not affiliated with these news sites would get into trouble, possibly sued... these articles are copyright protected, however small teaser articles are allowed to draw audiences over to the actual domain they belong too..

In Some cases if we want a full article to be shown we'll take what we read from the actual article and write up our own story or opinion on the matter. but News sites consider full copied content thievery because they rely on ad-revenue from those clicks to their links.. thank you for understanding..
'P.S' No we do not make a dime for you clicking the links, we're merely following rules and guidelines so this site will be here long term.
Sorry your fantasies of being bit weren't fulfilled here.

LMAO - "BITE ME".

Re: Plaintiff: Saints GM Mickey Loomis was covering up pill abuse
 

My problem is this dude wants to do a good job and be a stand up guy he should have had an intervention with Payton if its true! How about helping a human being if you think he is trouble. Don't beat a man down until you see that he gets help if there is a problem.

Resigning over some pills being missing really?

Guess who was an employee of the Saints Organization who isn't getting a ring.

this guy better protect his knees

Re: Plaintiff: Saints GM Mickey Loomis was covering up pill abuse
 

he supposidly help put away ed. edwards with wearing wiretaps and got nothing out of no one to put him away, he's a legend in his own mind. he has credibility in the fbi for 30 years served. he will be a hated man way before all this is over. he will go down in saints history as the man behind PILL-GATE. i'm going to take someones advice and let the courts do the settling.

Re: Plaintiff: Saints GM Mickey Loomis was covering up pill abuse
 

Oh for crying out loud..........WTF. If you want to help, then get involved in something other than ratting someone out.

Re: Plaintiff: Saints GM Mickey Loomis was covering up pill abuse
 

All I know is this has the potential to wreak the franchise. Hopefully everything will turn out fine, but the potential is there. Just think if the Tom Benson is forced to release Loomis and Payton. The franchise could revert back to the old Saints in a heartbeat.

Im about to jump..cant take it anymore...lol

Re: Plaintiff: Saints GM Mickey Loomis was covering up pill abuse
 

I am sick of these articles not stating what is undeniably the truth -- there was no cover up. According to the plaintiff's own complaint, these are the facts:

1. Loomis authorized Santini to notify the US Attorney.

2. Loomis notified the NFL.

3. Loomis authorized Santini to give his beloved report to Benson.

Obviously, after Loomis finished his phone call with the US Attorney he could have shut the hell up and never spoke about it again unless compelled to do so by the government. How could Santini possibly felt like he was in danger of being accused of covering something up when he was the one who made the call to the Feds?

The Saints may very well decide to settle with this guy, but one thing is for certain -- no New Orleans jury is ever going to give him a dime.

Thx for the explanation bc I really didn't know. Now I do. And I feel smarter this morning.

One revenue stream completely ignored. Per Donald Trump, "You're fired!" :doh:

Lawsuit update
 

Hello people...new kind on the block here...just saw on the ESPN site...case in regards to the lawsuit will be drop.........about time.

Re: Plaintiff: Saints GM Mickey Loomis was covering up pill abuse
 

Yes the case has not been dropped but it's going to arbitration, which is a smaller formal way of going about it.. it's not totally "DROPPED" he just withdrew from the lawsuit
