This is just ammo for the SAINTS to go out this year and win it all out right. This way there would be no doubts that the SAINTS are champions. !!!WHO DAT!!!! The NFL is turning into a bunch of sissy's if you ask me. If a player is afraid to make a hit it completely hinders them from giving it there all. Each player has the fine they are going to get in the back of there minds when they are on the field now. I wonder if the fans can protest the league rules on this? This mine as well be two hand touch football. Go out there, take your hits, and be a man about it. Isn't that what footbal was all about?

Prices were set on Saturday nights in the team hotel.

In a makeshift meeting room, with the whisper of evening traffic pouring in from the Beltway, we laid our bounties on opposing players. We targeted big names, our sights set on taking them out of the game

The funny part about all this is, is it has no face. Sources say, NFL Security, or like this story I can tell you how it happened but I won't put my name in it. The media condemns the players for not coming out and saying who you are when you attack another player verbally but when they print stories like this one it is fine to Go with its a former Washington Redskins player. Crap!!!

The more this stuff comes out, the less we should be hammered. Maybe if Goddell quit counting his money for a minute and actuall payed attention to stuff, this wouldn't have been such an atrocity!

So you mean to tell me that there was money on the table and we still couldnt hit/ cover people. Maybe they should have upped the bounty. it almost looked like they were getting paid NOT to hit someone. The league should look at the tapes from the last 2 years and they will see that our D was not trying to hurt anyone...in fact they avoided hitting people

I'm old school......I thought bounty hunters rode horses and had wanted posters..........Wanted Dead or Alive!!
