in the end, it's an "internal NFL matter" and everything... EVERYTHING has been sparse comments from the Commish and MOSTLY speculation.

All I know is we were busted and have been punished. Time to move on with life!

Think that was the same coach who was involved in the Vicodin theft coverup?

Cmon fellas. I believe in my team too. And I believe the penalties were over-reaching.

But this is THE most competitive stage since the days of Roman Gladiators. It's an all out war. Rules are bent, broken and smashed every day.

We were just the ones dumb (or arrogant) enough to get caught.

NO, you're right!

............. how many other topics do I just SURRENDER and ask that they just pass on so we can move on with life......... sorry but this one is hard to comprehend with Black & Gold glasses on........

If ever there was a time as a Saints fan when we yearned for TIME to move on (besides the 1-15 season), this is THE TIME.

It is my belief that any time a person is suspended and loses over 7 million dollars, then they must have him dead to right with some sort of evidence or there would be a lawsuit already in progress.

You would think, but Goodell is the dictator of the NFL. There are no checks and balances, so he believes he doesn't have to present evidence. But this is where the arrogance of Roger will bite HIM. I don't know if it will happen this off season, but I believe it is only a matter of time before this goes to federal court.

If they had hard undeniable proof, they would have shown it. After all, Goodell has never missed a chance to smear the Saints image with stories. So why not show the evidence if you have it? Makes you wonder.

	If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
