Goodell's Propaganda Machine Hard At Work - Gayle Sayers Embarrasses himself over Bountygate

08-09-2012, 05:09 AM

Well, what can you expect from a Bears' player..?

And it's OK if he feels that way, I'll let it slide.

Just like I won't go to a retirement home and correct all the old timers there when they speak out of their a$$ - I can't be bothered with correcting Sayers.

This is just very sad, I can't believe he is saying this.

Who is is clown giving the interview also? He is just a idiot.
Mr. Sayers I fell sorry for you, and before you open your damn mouth. Run the question through your head first, then answer it.

there or their?

I am not sure this is a propaganda tactic.... The NFL would have discussed this with Sayers before hand which usually means the emotion would have not been there like it was...

I believe it is genuine... Genuine crazy talk... Obviously he is not in "complete control" of his faculties. That sort of rage would have been what I would have expected from someone who had a leg broken on Sunday (ending his career) and undeniable proof came out Tuesday that it was intentional.

I did read his bio: Seems his career was ended because of knee injuries. Maybe that is why he was so emo.

Gales career ended in 1971. Bounty programs existed in 1974... Gale needs to read the news.

Wait!!!!! I found something else:
Update: Gibbs talked to Jason Reid on Tuesday about incentive-based pay during his first coaching stint, when the NFL permitted teams to reward players with a set amount of extra money.
George Starke: Joe Gibbs would hand out 100 dollar bills for hits on QBs - DC Sports Bog - The Washington Post

The NFL has been aware of and condoned this in the past.

Did you just compare Gale Sayers to Reggie bush?

As if a man named Gale isn't ridiculous enough, he goes off about something he clearly doesn't know one thing about.

Utah_Saint · 08-09-2012, 08:24 AM

It's sad to see what he's become.

Only in terms of lunacy, I'm sure.

Besides Matt Ryan and Eli Manning, this is the only other NFL player who I can recall that has spoken out in opposition to what the Saints "d i d"

I couldn't even watch the whole video. I wanted to punch the guy in the face, and that's never a healthy frame of mind. Who ever said anything about somebody wanting to break their arm, Gale? How can you judge an entire organization based not only on the NFL's rhetoric, but on your own made up stories. You think the owner had something to do with it, when not even Goodell, himself, ever claimed that? I have no respect for this man. He proved himself to be nothing but a weak minded pawn.
