Hate they had to mention Kaperdick in the same article.

Blank and Jerry Jones guaranteed

Jones would have been on the phone calling for him to be fired and would have signed him up months later

Its the main reason i had no sympathy for Jones in his battles in the past few months. The guy was happy to sit back and back Goodell through all the past league attacks on the Saints and Pats but the second he went after Zeke Jerry threw his doll out the pram and wanted the normal special treatment that the Cowboys,Giants have benefitted from for year

Better stop before said rant starts to turn into a foul mouthed tirade
RailBoss and Rugby Saint II like this.

"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!

Has anyone considered Vikings owner Zygi Wilf or Cowboys owner Jerry Jones?

Wylfs didn't take to kindly to losing the NFC Championship game - hated it so that they borrowed a page from Irsay and had rules changed to ease the butt hurt...

Irsay would be one to consider...

Know Steve Bisciotti is tight with Goodell, especially after Goodell colluded with the Ravens to try and coverup the Ray Rice Beatdown..

But it was likely two owners that have known Benson the longest that were sent to persuade Benson...

Now that you said that..makes perfect sense that an owner of a team, with a fan base of bunch of whiny little pussies, would do that. So maybe then he could go pass out tissues to everyone in the stands and tell them everything will be better now. Seems like a no brainer now.

That was a pretty ridiculous & harsh penalty on Coach Sean Payton. I mean he was not able to speak to basically anyone for a year. A year?

Sean was right ... they tried to break him but failed.
