I thin k the NFL is not being unfair. Our punishment is a little harsh on sP and Loomis but besides that we deserve everything we get. They should be punished. If this happened to the Falcons we would be crying for a lifetime ban. Williams went above and beyond just coaching up our team. There is no room for what he did in the league. I hope they do find he was a rogue coach, but I doubt that was the case. Yes other teams do it, but we got caught.

Is this not the EXACT same thing he-who-must-not-be-named discussed with his defensive players prior to the Saints' divisional matchup with the San Francisco 49ers?

"The thing is, we knew (Kyle Williams) had four concussions," Jacquian Williams told NYMag.com after the game. "So that was our biggest thing -- was to take him out of the game."

Here is a link to the nfl.com article: NFL.com news: Flashback: Giants targeted 49ers' Williams in playoffs

And here is a link to the nymag.com article: Did Giants Strategically Concuss Kyle Williams? -- The Sports Section

Call me crazy, but aren't the Saints just being singled out for sh*t that the entire league seems to endorse behind closed doors? I mean, I realize that the Gregg Williams audio is horrible and all, but my thinking is that the Saints are just the ones who got caught.

They have not proven any money changed hands and they didn't lie about it.

The Dude bringing the HEAT!!


Props for being objective. It can be tough when it's your team but try and keep in mind what you would think if it was an opponent. Or if something had happened. I said before but if Brees was taken out after someone like GW did his thing I would be sickened by it! Football is a man's game, you do hit hard, you don't wear skirts, but you don't go out with the mindset you want to injure other players. That was wrong, everyone involved should be punished regardless of who else may or may not be doing the same thing.

Im not defending Williams, but where in this recording was compensation actually mentioned? Meaning, where exactly did Williams say, "you will get paid if you do this."? In court, this is called "circumstantial evidence".

Hey Pat:


We do not need video of other teams... There is open admission of it.

The Redskins Had A Bounty On Roger Staubach In 1974 | NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth

NFL.com news: Pierce: 'We always knew who was injured'
"I've heard that speech from seven of the defensive coordinators I've played with in my nine-year career," Pierce told ESPN this week"

So lets see.. 7 of 9 Defensive coordinators... And going back to 1974....

So hell yes we were singled out.


I am not singling you out.
