“I heard the whole tape. I also think “kill the head” was more of a metaphor than anything else, of a piece “attack their will” and “men aren’t equals unless they have equal confidence.”

And what was “Take out Crabtree’s ACL” a metaphor for? And “Take out Vernon Davis’ ankles?”

Pathetic attempt at spinning, Mikey.

I agree that the ACL comment was beyond the pale.

But I also think that “kill the head, and the body will die” was likely a metaphor run wild. He was known to use that expression for years.

For the record, I’m a Browns fan, not a Saints fan. I could care less about them from a hometown standpoint.

ALL of you enjoy the big hits… ALL OF YOU!
and yet when you see how these big hits come to be you all act like its disgusting. RETARDS!

Do you all think GW is the only guy doing this?
Id bet all of the league did this..

I find it worse that GW took all the blame and the major amount of punishment for this. The head coach is the man in charge.. HE knew what was going on and for all we know told GW to do it..

Football is a battle…
Its a War…

Its not a sport for the tame… You all ask theses cats to win.. Then you get upset when you see how that cake is baked.. If you want to start looking at hits.. Start with one’s like the Carson Palmer play off hit.. I havent seen the first replay of any Saint player go for the knee’s like the CP play..

Equally confounding is the level of ignorance of fans. This is the same BS Code of Honor that was dished out when the Penn State mess blew up last year and people lost their minds over Joe Paterno losing his job.

Joe Pa knew and he covered up. Rightfully so, his life and his career will end with a big freaking asterisk it deserves. It’s bleeping sport! It has no nutritional value of any type and the Vince Lombardi trophy is just a prop.

Here you all are defending the MOSTLY illiterate millionaires….and this soon to be millionaire, Claiborne with his his Wonderlic score of 4 (God, I wonder what color crayon he used for the test?)

Just stop it everyone. Would you feel the same if your son was targeted following a concussion….where he was reduced to a vegetative state later in life by intellectual midgets that have been harvested to be legalized hit men?

At the end of the day, everyone needs to be banned for life. I say lets get to the players who did Williams bidding. I will pick my nose with utter glee when Jonathan Vilma is banned for life!

No……no he isn’t. Not even close. Not even in the same ballpark. You people are just pathetic. It has to be someone else’s fault, not the Saints!

And you think there are no offensive coaches who don’t have bounties??? Oh sure there are check out some of the dirty O-line play in most games, yes that’s right there are defensive players coaches would love to have out of the game…

I love a got physical violent legal hit…but we do have on both sides of the ball targets that each team would like to take out the game…see Greg you messed up when you started naming names, and pointing out what areas to hit…should’ve just said lets go out and kick some arse…and the rest will take care of itself…

Were my son a grown rational man who knowingly chose to play professional football, having played the game myself, I would know going in that he would be targeted like this. And I would respect his decision.

The naivete as to what the game is really like is what’s crazy.

This is how the game is played. This is how locker rooms sound. The players say much worse things to each other. Almost all of them.

The kids attracted to this game at a young age are cut from a certain cloth. The men who play it as adults are elite athletes cut from that cloth.

If you’re not cut from the cloth, that’s totally fine. But these men are, and they contracted for this.

The paternalism and moralizing (looking at you Florio) is what’s most disturbing to me in all of this. I’m being honest.

It’s kind of ironic after than rant it was the Niners that knocked out Pierre Thomas on the goal line with a helmet to helmet hit.

Gregg Williams is more likely going to be selling insurance than coaching football ever again.

There is NOTHING wrong with selling insurance.

You’re in good hands.

Ha ha

This isn’t about being a rat, it’s about betraying the confidence of a terminally-ill man who trusted you to carry out some of his final wishes.

it’s very unlikely Pamphilon will make much or anything from this, and he’s done with the NFL now so those profiteering type arguments don’t hold water guys…..

also, those thinking he’s going to get sued are way off base, he was released from any confidentiality agreement when he became party to Williams’ conspiracy.

the timing might be an issue, but maybe he saw the appeal coming up and was concerned Williams et al might get a little undeserved mercy?

in any event, thanks Pamphilon for making it entirely clear what the Saints were doing.

and Saints fans? eat it.

Just stop it everyone. Would you feel the same if your son was targeted following a concussion….where he was reduced to a vegetative state later in life ?
