So how is this not on Goodell's suspenion list?

If the Saints are coming under all this fire and damnation; how come the Jets are not under investigation? Isn't this following statement, premeditation?

"We want to knock him out, but we're out to do it legally," linebacker Aaron Maybin said.

"Every time he sees me, he will remember that hit," Landry said. "If I'm in the box or I'm going downhill, he'll remember that hit."

"If I get penalized, I'm not going to stop head-hunting," he said. "I'm not going to stop the way I play."

What's the difference? The NFL says it punished us because our players were purposefully trying to hurt other players. The World, to include players and former players were shocked by "What our team did". Why is this not plastered all over the news?!?!?!?!

Here's the rest of the story

Probably because no one said they were getting paid for the hits.

Because it's not the Saints. The NFL already has their scapegoat in us, sharing some of the blame now will hurt Roger and his bull**** suspensions. He can't suspend everybody like he did our team...

Re: So how is this not on Goodell's suspenion list?

The "Pay" part was only a little of what the deeper issue was' so says Roger.

The main issue was that our boys were intentionally trying to hurt players.

Well, what the hell are those statements?

If Benson isn't call the Roger today jumping up and down for what these guys have said, he's crazy.

The Saints didn't start this whole thing. With the Jets' statements, it proves this goes on throughout the NFL, College and High School. I know I haven't been very vocal about this crap; but my time has arrived. I knew a player on another team would run his mouth and say something like this. Now, if the Saints are such deamons, something needs to be done about these players as well. Rex Ryan included.

Yes. I am pissed off. Sorry.

Goodell isn't trying to pound his chest and make himself look like he cares about player safety. He came under fire from the players union for not paying attention to concussions, so he conveniently exposed the 'bounty' program. He threw the saints under the bus to try and protect his own image, he doesn't really care

Besides being the largest market, by a mile, the NFL loves the Rex Ryan freak show. They will turn a blind eye to a lot of crap-ola, if anythings done, it will probably be done by the devil's lackey/minion.

Well, that's B.S. if that is the reasoning for not hammering the Jets.

I mean, it's the Jets. Not the Giants.

Re: So how is this not on Goodell's suspenion list?

Giants said the same during the NFC Championship last year. Terrell Suggs placed a bounty on national TV in the past.

Bottom line is, we are the scapegoat and the NFL has their evidence to show they were both proactive and reactive to concussion related issues for their law suit. They don't need to react to this anymore thanks to us.
