The league has themselves in a real pickle and I love it! If Tag don't drastically reduce things, the Judge will. Either way, the NFL has mudd on it's face!

What could they have warned the players about? They were accused of placing bounties on opposing players. That wasn't happening. They were told to stop placing bounties on opposing players. Whether or not the coaches told them to stop, how the heck do you stop doing something you weren't doing?

Payton got screwed over on this whole deal more than anyone.

No, I take that back. WE as fans got screwed over more than anyone and we need to ensure that Goodell's future visits to our friendly city are a living hell.
