Title: OT NFL Suspensions
Post by: Mr. B on March 21, 2012, 10:32:44 AM: I applaud the NFL for having the balls to come down hard on the New Orleans Saints organization for bounty hunting. Organized head-hunting has no place in organized sports and the league is sending a strong message about it.

I was very surprised Peyton was suspended for a year.

Bernie Kosar said it was because he lied and the team lied about it for years

$50,000 spiff to knock out the QB's like Favre when the Pack looked likely to be in the SB. Same for most the top players for most teams. It's deplorable, but it happens. It'll be tough to police.
