This is the audio of Mike and Mike from 3/5 with Mike Golic explaining the thoughts behind the process. I am a Saints fan and if you listen to Golic what they admit to is not new. It is more wide spread than you think. Didn’t the Giants admit to targeting the kickreturner for San Fran in the Championship game? He left the game with a concussion. Don’t preach when you don’t know all of the facts.

Grammar 101 buddy

I don’t hear about these points very often, but I hope anyone who reads this comment will look into this situation further and maybe change your opinion on how exactly the saints are demonized, and for what reasons.

He played in an era where the defense was allowed to hit the QB. Many people mentioned Ditka, and someone mentioned Deacon Jones. Those two would be thrown out of the NFL by Lord Goodell if they tried to play like they did in today’s NFL. Gayle, I am sure is aware of the head hunting, and all of that. That is why I am guessing he said what he said.

My point is, even if you DISAGREE with the man, there is no reason for a lot of the cheap shots at him. (no pun intended). The man is a legend. He deserves respect.

Thank your players for giving Lord Roger that power and stop crying. It is THEIR fault they allowed this power to happen when they negotiated.

The party has moved to another location, sorry you were late.

Thanks,

I heard worse stuff than what Gregg Williams said in my high school locker room.

As far as actions – when, Gale, did the Saints break anyone’s arm or leg???? The only person seriously hurt during the “bounty years” was Reggie Bush.

Do I need to tell you that Bush was a Saint and that the 49ers broke his leg?

If you’re sitting in a bar and offer the guy next to you 10k to go outside and put the guy standing on the corner in the hospital. Would you be committing a crime?

It’s like everyone is on Earth and you’re on Pluto. What the HELL you rambling about brother?

sadly, the league in its way too late zeal to be on the right side of the concussion liability curve has begun to operate like the chinese communist party. a one day show trial at which only some evidence is indicated, and a quick verdict so that the issue can be put to rest before the next party leadership transition (or opening day in this case).

gale sayers has either has dementia, or hasn’t looked into the issue beyond a headline. that is sad, more for reminding me that i’m getting old along with him than for his misinformed comments, which can be understood as such by most folks.

 Your the idiot!! The coaches had to accept their suspensions if they ever wanted to coach again. The CBA doesn’t protect coaches so it was a necessary step in order for Payton and Willaims to eventually get back on the sideline. All the league evidence is crumpling and Vilma is probably going to win a case against Goodell on Friday. Do your research before you open your mouth. But regardless, your an idiot if you think this hasn’t been going on since Lombardi first held the super bowl trophy. On all levels. I, have firsthand knowledge that it happens on high school and college level bc I lived a reward system for 8 football seasons in HS and college as a MLB. Maybe it’s just me, but I loved when I got reckonized for running through a RB and knocking his ass out or breaking his collarbone bc my coach told me to take him out. Never anything dirty, not going for his knees, I’m lowering my shoulder and taking my 250 pound frame through him. I think you should be rewarded for exceptional plays. That’s what makes great players great.

Living in Chicago and listening to him talk about the NFL past and present, however, is getting a little tiresome. Gale Sayers has become a bitter old man who rarely has a good word to say about anyone playing the game. He even went a rant about how much better he was than Walter Payton.

Again, he was a GREAT player, and he has a right to be unhappy about how his career ended. But his credibility ran out a long time ago.

In other words, he’s a better athlete than you, more successful businessman than you, and smarter than you.

Now, to everyone that wants to condemn the Saints for the Greg Williams tape (which was edited and the sentence in which he specifically stated not to injure anyone purposely was left out, go figure) I’d ask you this. Why was there no 49ers injured in the game? Indeed, why were the Saints not even penalized during the entire game? Look it up, zero, zip, nada flags.

Yet, according to the brainwashed, the Saints fans are in denial. Riiiiight.

Gale Sayers is a hall of famer one of the best backs ever and he thinks what the Saints did was despicable. So please Saints fans stop acting like the NFL is on a witch hunt your team broke the rules your suspended head coach admitted it and your ex defensive coordinator admitted it.
