Goodell Lowers the Boom on the Saints: Payton suspended for the year, lose picks, & more!

[acman]

huh? WTF are you talking about?

Imagine the Saints are gosh awful next year, you don't think it's beyond the realm of possibility they go after a younger franchise QB? What if the Saints can't come to terms with Brees.

Is it an injury situation like Manning? No! But what if the Saints say next year F'it we are rebuilding?

I guess the only difference is that the other teams in the league didn't get caught and lie about it...yet.

But i would guess that the same punishment if not worse will be placed on any team caught doing it in the future.

As a league, you can't talk player safety is our top concern out of one side of your mouth and then condone or turn a blind eye out the other.

Clearly and when I posted that I didn't know they had lied either.

That's too many what ifs for me to deal with.

If that we even a thought of theirs I would trade him ASAP and just blow it up totally now when you could get something in return for him but I put that at about ZERO percent chance of happening.

2 what ifs are too much for you to deal with?

We already know Brees isn't happy with the Franchise tag, walking is a very real possibility next year for him.

See Indianapolis for what if #2, they just did what no one thought they would do.

Why pay a Kings ransom if you can snag him next year for a contract? What's to say the Saints don't try that or have already tried that. Remember not every team is as bat$hit crazy as the Redskins are.

If Goodell wanted to be real hard core, he'd force the Saints to hire Matt Millen as GM/Head Coach for the year..

Knowing our luck with him, he might accidentally show up competent for the job. The ultimate fu from Millen.

I just had a thought (first time)

Its not the crime that will get ya but its the cover up.
