Oh, I got it. I was back stage in 1977 at one of their Grand Illusion tour stops in Greenville, NC. They were fronted by Charlie. We partied with the Charlie gang after the concert.

It would have been nice if some of these "writers" did their homework from the start. It's unfortunate for the Saints organization and us fans because the only people reading these articles are Saints fans. Fans from others teams and the mainstream media chopped us down and moved on assuming everything they heard 2 months ago was true. While its nice to see articles questioning Goodell, it frustrates me knowing its not getting anywhere near the publicity the story got 2 months ago.

Exclamation Report: Saints players believe they’re being “railroaded”

As the bounty case continues to bounce back and forth between simmer and full boil, a strong undercurrent of discontent continues to linger among the ranks of the men who still play for the Saints organization.

According to Mike Freeman of CBSSports.com, multiple unnamed members of the team privately have complained about the situation.

“Everyone in the bounty case is being railroaded,” one unnamed Saints player told Freeman. “I can’t believe this is happening.”

I'm with you Halo, that's why it's going to be interesting to see how RG responds. We are going to get a clearer picture of how the NFL hierarchy works in these matters. Does RG call the shots and everyone else is just yes men, or, does he present it to a board. How much power does he actually have. I know he has a lot but what is the role of the owners in all this is what I'd like to know. I'm sure the owners are not just turning on ESPN and saying there's our boy.

Just want to commend all you Saints fans. We asked questions, before making a judgment. It's probably because we bleed black and gold, but it's prudent none the less. This is gone blow up in the face of the league and we will be rewarded. You guys rock
