A lot of information has already come out regarding BountyGate and the Saints. But we’re only just getting started.

One of the details that has emerged relates to the 2009 NFC Championship game where the Saints bruised and battered Brett Favre all night long.

Before the game, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported on NFL Live that Jonathan Vilma threw $10,000 on a table and said it would go to the player that successfully knocked out Favre. None of the Saints were successful, but they did their best in one of Favre’s more underrated performances of all time. (Yes, the ending stunk. Just watch the rest.)

Patriots fans feel like they won the Super Bowl today.

Miami fans should be very proud to be rid of the Bill Parcells coaching tree. :wink:

i personally hate this story, as it means Peyton Manning has an excuse.

There's little doubt the penalties on the Saints will be worse than what the league did to the Patriots for the Spygate scandal in 2007.

i can't wait for congress to get involved, and other teams season ticket holders (from the last 3 years) to sue them and the NFL.

I hope Williams is fired over it, not because i care about bounties, but because his defense fucking sucks.

So that makes 4 Super Bowl champs with asterisks in the last 11 years, all the glorious baseball records--asterisks, Guy with cancer dominates a sport Americans wouldn't care about--7 asterisks. I think I'm starting to miss the old days of blissful ignorance.

They're fucked. I am also 100% certain they weren't the only team doing this. Some papers being shredded right about now.

i hope Bernard Pollard is banned from the league (somehow).

Rebar · **Posted:** Sat Mar 03, 2012 2:40 pm

So they are saying he did this during his days with Tennessee and Washington also. Is there enough proof of that to punish those teams as well?

wow i have really been out of the loop lately. i generally shut down sports after football until baseball season.

i guess ALex Smith didnt have a bounty on him. too bad.

this probably happens everywhere, and i doubt it makes much difference. defensive players trying to hurt offensive ones!!! SHOCKING! I'm sure that ten grand is a huge motivator for millionaires who get fined more than that for weaker hits.
