Give me a break! Couldn’t get a sideline toady to fetch a towel for that. Little game they played to prime the pump. Warner–”It’s Football”. Farve–”That’s Football”. Yep, better pull on your big boy pants to get on the field with those guys, no matter what the rules are.

There’s nothing like having a raging numbed-up 350LB opiate-induced defensive end motivated by an extra $1500.00 cash zeroing in on your QB’s kneecap. The NFL; America’s Game!

What D Dosnt go out on the field to try to knock out the QB. Call the Saints dirty. Go ahead and fine them, take away deft picks, make suspensions. But you know what….?

Still worth it. SB 44 Champs!!!!!

That should about do it.

Just play the game right, like its supposed to be played. That’s an opponent, true, but that’s also another human being trying to make a living, and very probably has a family to provide for.

If you are going to break the rules, don’t write it down. That’s just stupid.

If that’s what it takes to motivate the them and they aren’t taking cheapshot hits, then what’s the problem? They can spend their money however they want.

The Patriots own their pick this year – they got Mark Ingram with that trade last year. And I’d be surprised if it only cost them one #1 pick. With all the talk about concussions and injuries, and all the rules changes in the last two years, Godell will probably go nuclear on the Saints for this one. Maybe take away off-season camp time?

Kurt is right. To say this hasn’t happened before in the league is not realistic.

———————————————–
You mean, like opposing coaches taping defensive signals from an unauthorized location, that were clear to 70,000 people watching the game? I think GODell, whom I am not a fan of, should inflict significant penalties on the Saints. After all, it’s not the crime that tainted the Pats, it was the punishment the new commish meted out that tainted the Pats.

And no, this has nothing to do with Spygate. That particular cheating scandal gave the Patriots a competitive advantage. No competitive advantage came about in this case. This was about motivating defensive players to get after it and knock the piss out of the QB……which is the name of the game anyway. Stop trying to turn football into Soccor. Stick to what nerds like you are good at……Warcraft and long bathroom sessions with the Victoria’s Secret catalogue.
