That's what stinks about that "apology" GW made - he doesn't really take responsibility over the "performance system," even though it seems that he has implemented the same system at his previous places of employment. |

"But the bounty system didn't just take place in New Orleans under Williams. Mark Maske of the Washington Post reported later on Friday that Williams had a similar program when he was the defensive coordinator with the Washington Redskins." Also, "Former defensive end Philip Daniels was one of four players -- Daniels being the only one to go on the record -- who told the Post that the Williams’s scoring system gave special credit for "kill shots" that knocked the opposing team's star players out of the game." So, GW ran a bounty system while at other teams but didn't think it was the right thing to do in NO and is really sorry that he didn't put a stop to it. The guy is an absolute POS. |
