Load of crap. Super Bowl XLIV belong to us, and no media bull**** can have me believing otherwise, and if thats what gets you SB trophys I would do it again and again.

Exactly! Why would we have ANY documents showing payouts? That is just dumb and makes zero sense, UNLESS it was just a friendly side bet to motivate these mediocre players to make a play. Which is what I believe it truly was and not this death fund the media is making it out to be.

I know many will point to the Warner hit (it was legal) and Favre during the NFC Championship game (and I'll concede on that one), but what else has there been that makes this such a huge deal? Other than the fact that it was uncovered?

Who the hell has N.O. hit that was an illegal hit? Who? Which players were carted off the field because of the Saints being "dirty?" I know there is someone out there that can answer this ... I've got to be honest though --- I don't remember any besides Warner and Favre ... Anyone?

You Guys took so many shots on Farve it was just blatant and obvious what was trying to be done. Congrats, The Saints have now collected the "DIRTIEST TEAM IN THE NFL" award!

If the league didn't cater to the golden-child and made up the Brady Rule, then the Hi-Lo hit on Favre would be a non-issue.

As I have posted before, all that matters is that the bounty was in place.

There is no denying the bounty is true.

Benson has already said that he ordered it to be stopped immediately; I could see Benson firing Loomis for insubordination over this.

Apparently you missed the part when I said "and I concede on that one" --- which, since you aren't smart enough to understand means that I AGREED THAT WE PERHAPS TOOK SOME CHEAP SHOTS AT FAVRE!!!

That being said, was anyone on the team fined by the league? NOPE! And none of the other "bounty" hits were either at $50K per, so does it really matter than some dumbass GW gave players $1500 to hit a guy ... Anyone who has ever played the game knows that defensive players want to absolutely destroy people --- The issue for me is not that they wanted too, but in that they publicly and happily admitted it. That's not very politically correct and we all know that America is a PC NATION!!!

And I´m glad we got it....

Jankman8 · 03-03-2012, 03:41 PM

Every team tries to after the other QB, that´s just part of the game.

Rugby Saint II · 03-03-2012, 09:00 PM

Favre said it was no big deal. And Warner said it's been going on a long time. It's nothing new. It's part of the game.errrr.......was part of the game.

It was the playoffs, you win at any and all costs. I disagree with the bounty but not the over aggressive play of the defense during that run
