No one is talking about this week’s bounty developments. Yet.

Asked by the powers-that-be to be discreet, none of the lawyers or other attendees have cracked the cone of silence regarding the testimony of former Saints assistant Mike Cerullo and former Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams.

Yet.

In time, someone will be talking a blue streak, Jack. For now, everyone is behaving.

Except Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma. Sort of.

“Here’s a recap of yesterday’s hearing ‘blah blah blah blah bounty bullsh** still dragging on blah blah blah witchhunt blah blah blah blah,’” Vilma wrote on Twitter this morning.

It implies that Vilma wasn’t particularly thrilled or intrigued by what he witnessed on Friday, when Williams took the witness stand.

Barring a complete reversal of the player suspensions by former Commissioner Paul Tagliabue, the transcripts of Cerullo’s and Williams’ testimony eventually will be filed with the federal court presiding over the bounty case. And then the media will get a chance to sift through all the blah blah blah blah bounty bullsh** still dragging on blah blah blah witchhunt blah blah blah blah from this past week.
