Whatever punishment Saints players get should be applied to Giants

The Giants are one of the Darling teams.......I don't see much in repercussions.

According to this article, the 9ers were guilty, too.

IMO, the $$$ part of the bountys is what has so many people's panties in a bunch.

Everyone seems to accept that defensive players trying to knock QBs, RBs, WRs out of games is just a part of football. The media tries to act shocked over the money aspect.

I agree Ruby.
What 's done is done.
Saints did wrong. It was stupid and luckily the defense played so-so to poorly most of the 2011 season. Thanks goodness the Saints' defense was not one of the leagues ' best.
I am ready for the bountygate be done and out of the press.

If he does nothing to the Giants, which I fully expect exactly that, it would further expose Roger's hypocrisy. The reason why is because he has repeatedly said that this is about stopping the bounties and promoting player safety. He has only said that the Saints (supposedly) ignoring the league made the penalties worse. He didn't say that was the only reason.

But if Roger ignores the Giants situation, then the only statement he has made in all of this is what we already knew. He had a personal vendetta against the Saints.
