Perhaps well agree to allow the NFL to screw us over with the cap if they promise not to screw us over with bountygate.

| Re: Bountygate Punishment for the Saints Roger Goodell is definitely going to go down as one of the harshest Commissioners in NFL history. The era in which the players become robots, and the game becomes flag football.

| Re: Bountygate Punishment for the Saints “We are all accountable and responsible for player health and safety and the integrity of the game,” Commissioner Goodell said. “We will not tolerate conduct or a culture that undermines those priorities. No one is above the game or the rules that govern it. Respect for the game and the people who participate in it will not be compromised.” “A combination of elements made this matter particularly unusual and egregious,” Commissioner Goodell continued. “When there is targeting of players for injury and cash rewards over a three-year period, the involvement of the coaching staff, and three years of denials and willful disrespect of the rules, a strong and lasting message must be sent that such conduct is totally unacceptable and has no place in the game.” The really key element as we talked about before (and what separates this in a big way from SpyGate) is that the Saints denied this for 3 years. Confronted, denied. Confronted again, admitted said they would do something about it...did nothing. Saints could have avoided harsher punishment had they admitted right away

| This is some harsh punishment. GW's indefinite suspension? Does he make it back in the league? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

| Re: Bountygate Punishment for the Saints What's more surprising is that Payton is going to keep his job. Also, he's losing a ton of coin over this as well. Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter Sean Payton's year-long suspension means lost salary for one year. Payton's out about $7 million.
