Today, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell made a decision about the Saints bounty program. New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton has been suspended for one year. His former assistant Gregg Williams who currently works for the ST Louis Rams has been suspended indefinitely. Saints' GM Matt Loomis for 8 games & Saints assistant Joe Vitt for 6 games.The Saints were also fined $500,000 & stripped of a 2nd round pick.
I support this ruling. While football is a violent game trying to injure people in unacceptable. It does not matter what the reason is. NFL players are all trying to make a living. Hurt somebody would hurt there ability to do that. The NFL is also being sued over player concussions. This bounty program is a embarrassment to the NFL. The NFL had warned the Saints to stop it & the Saints keep doing it. They lied when they were caught. In my opinion, the Saints got off easy.
