There you go - 5 yard penalty for the zebras!!

Everything Sean Payton said in that answer is the same thing that I said in another thread (kinda...LOL), he just said it nicer than I did.

Say it Sean, we'll take up a collection to pay your fine!

Yes, it's complete bullcrap. The NFL for years has tried to push up the offensive production and now that it has they are trying to take some of it back. No idea why, oh yeah, the Saints won the Super Bowl and the new free agency rules worked in the Saints favor. Oh yeah, not to mention the stupidity of the new OT rules. I mean, WTH? If their beloved Dallas Cowboys would have won it all, I doubt the rule changes would be in effect. Oh well, it is what it is. Even the stupidity of the 18 game season is going to be rammed down our throats, I mean as much as I love the NFL, going to 18 regular season games is a bit much.
