Bounty evidence may have been fake.

The entire situation is just weird.
The problem is the NFL has no "Judicial system" in place to handle these matters, it's just a dictatorship.
The Saints are the perfect scapegoat for the Commish and the NFL to make their point.

I, like so many other Saints fans, grow so weary of the entire Bountygate matter that I'm ready to completely move on.

Would need Watergate-esque hard cold evidence to make a case, and by the time anything got started, draft and training camp will be underway and we'll be watching our team do whatever in their power to salvage a chance at a superbowl.

If pending suspensions cripple the team, then I'd say YES the Saints as an organization need to take the commish down not by legal means but by manipulation of the owners to have him removed or reverse harsh suspensions.

Loomis, Sean Payton and at least Vilma and a few others will not be factors in this season. It just is what it is.

Great journalism on the part of our friends at Canal Street Chronicles - really appreciate this contribution.

These have been my thoughts from the very beginning.

If there were any kind of actual judicial process, these accusations would have been laughed at. Instead, it is, in fact, a dictatorship. So now we're the one's being laughed at because we're left with an empty feeling, knowing that so much is being ignored and we can't do anything about it.

It's pathetic. But I have a good feeling that justice will find it's way, in the form of a Super Bowl victory, fittingly in our own backyard.

Problem is, all the other owners are against the Saints.
