Also don't leave out the fact you are talking about someone from his team. It's like in my post above yours, go away falcon fan. Should have known better than to think anyone from that crap fan base would actually be able to see through bull****.
Heck, no! I don't ever want to see Rad go away. I honestly feel it improves the quality of a board to have differing opinions and outside input. As long as the member remains within the rules he/she should be allowed.

It improves the quality of the board when we are talking football. This is not football. This is a crime that is happening to our team. We have all kinda folks on this board from other teams but none of them are stupid enough to come on here and challenge us on a topic that is very personal. I don't expect many to understand our love affair with our team. Coming on here and insulting our intelligence isn't going to make me all warm and fuzzy. Some people need to learn there place. You wanna talk about us and our team negatively, go to smack talk. Don't come in here preaching the bible of a dictator, it don't go over well.

I don't think people are going to look past the fact that I'm a Falcons fan when I post. I'm sure they all think I'm some Georgia hillbilly that's laughing maniacally and twiddling my fingers together as the whole thing unfolds, simply because it's happening to the Saints. My views wouldn't be any different if it was us, you guys, the Steelers, the Cardinals, etc.

Actually, I didn't realize you were a Falcon fan until way into the debate. BUT now that I know, it explains a lot as to why anyone would come here on our site and try to tell us we don't know what we are talking about.

I have no problem talking football with anyone, I don't care who there team is. You may not be a hillbilly but obviously your a few french fry's short of a happy meal if you think coming on here arguing the side of the kommisar is going to win anyone over.

And yes, Mike Smith, when asked specifically about the cleary illegal hits Dunta Robinson landed on defenseless players with the intent to injure them (why else would you land an illegal hit on a defenseless player) he responded "that is how we teach them". He is clearly stating he coaches players to land illegal hits on defenseless players with the intent to injure them.
Yes, because offering payment for injuring other players is illegal? It's funny though your last paragraph. You're practically twisting yourself into a pretzel in an attempt to deflect here.

Here is where you are wrong. The Saints players were not offering money for injuring other players. They were offering money for big plays. If a player got hurt in the process it was not the intent, but simply part of the game. Players get hurt every game on exactly the same type of plays.

The Saints were initially accused of intentionally targeting specific players for injury. They have all denied that and no proof has ever been presented that this ever occurred.
