I guess it was too long.

Payton did appeal. You should check facts before you post.

Payton and Loomis could have appealed…and you know why they didn’t ? Because there was a bounty program plus they lied to Goodell when they told him they ended it after the first time they were caught. This whole woos is me Rodger has a vendetta against our fair city is pathetic and makes the fine folks of New Orleans look like dupes. Just admit it and move on..the evidence is clear; other teams had similar programs NO was the one that continued it when they got told to stop then lied..

After that who cares. Start rebuilding for next year!

Parcells knew his talent, and any football fan, knows this young guy is just staring a long, long career in the NFL.
Tagliabue should try to push this brash, foolish, Commish, out the door, and probably has some juice behind closed doors, but is smart enough to take his 4M dollar a year salary and stay home.
THE CT> GIANT

Even the certain sections of Louisiana that are very resilient with life are irate. I don’t think anyone around here will ever forgive Goodell. No one believes he would have exaggerated the charges and punishments like this if it was a Northeastern team.

Everyone here believes it was a personal vendetta.

He and swamp city deserve each other. Hope they enjoy their off season.

Yeah, OK.

If The Great Roger Goodell Himself Live And In Person is a real man (questionable), he’ll reinstate Payton now and generate some goodwill. I don’t see it happening, though. I see him acting like the d-bag he’s been throughout his misbegotten tenure as the Commish, being petty and childish, holding up Payton’s reinstatement on some weird and unsupportable technical grounds and looking for a way to issue more fines and suspensions.

Vilma is already going to make Roger pay. Payton, Benson, Loomis, and Vitt may soon be seeking retribution also very soon.
