NFL has suspended Williams and Smith
 
Kevin Williams of the Minnesota Vikings for the first two games of the year. No link right now but it's on rotoworld. Since Smith is also linked to him, he'll probably be out also.

So now we see why the audition for Defensive End will be extended into the regular season...

But do the Saints get a roster exemption or neaux?

Goodell really sucks as a Commissioner. So he suspends Smith and Williams over something that happened two years ago and Aqib Talib fired a gun a someone gets off free. Good Job Goodell.

The problem with the Talib incident is that it happened during the lockout when there were no CBA in place and the comissioner really don't have any power. But it seems wierd, you are right in that.

We knew it was coming. Glad it's only two games.

Like the Commish had power over Terrelle Pryor in college?

I call BS on this one.

Beastmode 09-02-2011 06:31 PM

I hope they can appeal it (again). There should be room to do so with the new CBA. Drag it out another 2 years.

crawgator 09-02-2011 06:32 PM

Yep lets get this over with...

neugey 09-03-2011 08:57 AM

I also say let's get the suspension over with and be glad its only 2 games and it will be over with soon. I'm sure Mickey and Sean are sick of this Starcaps issue, it has been like a horsefly that somehow survives year after year.

Goodell can now turn his attention to other matters he finds more important, like hiring people to stalk James Harrison.

homerj07 09-03-2011 11:22 AM

COuld the league have waited any longer to let us know about Smith's suspension? They should have done this 6 weeks ago. :brood:

C--k suckers!! :pissed:
