    WOW!! Huge Saints player suspensions!!!!

    The NFL suspended four players for their roles in the New Orleans Saints' bounty system, including linebacker Jonathan Vilma for the entire 2012 season.
    In addition to Vilma, defensive tackle Anthony Hargrove was suspended eight games, defensive Will Smith four games and linebacker Scott Fujita (now with the Cleveland Browns) three games.
    A league investigation found that from 2009-11 New Orleans coaches and players put together a bounty system that paid out improper cash bonuses for hits aimed at knocking opposing players out of games. The NFL says as many as 27 Saints participated.
    NFL commissioner Roger Goodell already has suspended Saints coach Sean Payton for the 2012 season and fined the team $500,000. Saints former defensive coordinator Gregg Williams is suspended indefinitely, New Orleans general manager Mickey Loomis begins an eight-game ban after the preseason, and interim coach Joe Vitt begins serves his six-game suspension at the same time.
    Payton's suspension began April 16 and runs through the Super Bowl, which, incidentally, is in New Orleans. During that time, Payton may not even have casual, non-football conversations with anyone on any NFL team without at least notifying the league office.

    Can't believe so many people care about this fixed game league

    NFL has been ruined by the power hungry thugs that run it

    Shit league that looks for any excuse to stop the game and run commercials

    you guys are missing a huge part to this story. the nfl knew this was happening in years past, they told the saints to stop, the saints just ignored them and might of even amped it up more. they even had the balls to bring in a reporter writing a book on the saints who audio recorded the whole conversation.

    they deserve everything that has happening to them. they are lucky none of the players on the target list will not bring civil charges, or even file criminal charges in court.
