Conversation with my wife
 

My darling wife who has trouble really understanding the game but is as passionate about the Saints as I am asked a series of simple questions about this whole thing

She: Did we really hurt anybody? Me: Uhh no... Brett Favre had a badly strained ankle

She: Don't they have rules for late hits?" Me; Uhhh yea they do

She: Well then why didn't the officials (she called them umpires bless her heart) throw a flag? Me: Uhhh Well because the hits were not illegal

She: Didn't some guy on another team get suspended for dirty play? Me: Yea there have been a few guys that have been

She: How many of our guys got suspended for dirty play? Uhhh well none


She: Oh ok... So what again is it that we did wrong??? Me: Uhh well you see we had this bounty system that well.. uhh.. you see we talked about.... and there were...well you see we lied about some things.... I don't know... watch your damned Lifetime Channel.... you are too logical for all of this

She: Well if all guys were suspended for lying.. Me... Don't go there

This is so true. I understand that the defense used this bount system as a motivation tool in the locker room, but was anyone ever really get rewarded for these types of hits? Did any ever really occur?

she makes perfect sense and puts it all in perspective....

but then we have to throw in the blasted Liability/cover your ass angle that the NFL is doing.

all this really is is the NFL covering their ass.

OR

the penalty is just and you guys are whining like babies

look another pissed off Viqueen fan! :rolleyes: 3 years after the fact... lol

Ben, is that you? Why aren't you out trying to pick up chicks at the bars?

he got banned quick... :doh:

Thats how we roll!! Come in here talkin noise..you get the boot!

Better to be banned than shot. Just sayin.

Bye bye lil' troll

I wish I could take credit for banning him. Maybe I can pick off a Falcon fan.

Just wondering what his 2nd post was before getting banned?

Never mind.....I found it.

You betcha...... RG knows his sorry ass is going to be on a witness stand in the not too distant future....

How many times did he say in his statement "I was lied too.... I was mislead"..... Dude was coached big time on what he needed to say when he was interviewed and in his statement and that coaching came from lawyers getting ready for trial...

Our problem was that we popped up on the radar just when he needed a scapegoat.............
