Once players begin suspension, they DO NOT count against the cap. |

Vilma is coming off of minor surgery. We can possibly place him on PUP list while he serves his suspension. He'll probably be the only one suspended because of the alleged $10,000 bounty on Farve if that is proven true. All other personal foul hits have been fined already so I don't think they will add to it and the more severe hits were done by McCray to Farve and Warner so no one is left on the team that it could affect in my opinion. but then again no one knows what the all high Goddell is thinking right about now.

I predicted Goodell would make an example of us, but not to this extent.
Late hits and other on field infractions have already been dealt with. Any player penalties that come down would be based on player involvement in putting monies in the hat or from collecting payments from said hat. They already know who those players are and how much they collected. Suspensions and fines will be based on that eveidence. In my opinion, based on performance, some of these guys ought to be giving that money back anyway, but that's a whole different thread. I just hope Goodell fells that he's already made his point. |
