Of all the teams and all their investigation efforts, that stemmed for years, they only found one team with a bounty program. I find that impossible to to believe. What is easy to believe is that when the NFL goes to court over the players they no longer have to say we did nothing. They had two choices, come down on several teams and open up more lawsuits or, just murder one with a strong fan base. That's not a conspiracy against the Saints, that's damage control and I say this because other former players have already stated this is nothing new or unique just to the Saints.

.. and I would like to add to this, the beating Farve took made the Saints an easy target, not because QB's don't get beat up every Sunday, but because it was Brett Farve, and his agent decided to release those pictures, as if the other 1200 or so players in the NFL don't get bruises or swollen ankles... combined with GW's mouth, it gave the NFL the perfect scapegoat.
