The NFL and CBS would love it though.
All of the hand-wringing and outrage over the Saints is driving me up a fucking wall.
I think it’s stupid and immature to reward people for injuring someone else. You reward people for making good plays, not because they injured someone in the process. In high school, we used to get stickers for our helmets (like OSU buckeyes) for big hits. That’s what you want to reward, not the fact that the guy didn’t get up afterward.
However, some of the holier-than-thou bullshit I’ve seen and heard is just ridiculous. Yes, football players try to hurt each other. That is the nature of a violent game played by violent men, and it doesn’t change just because there’s a minor financial incentive involved.
The way some people are reacting you’d think the Saints were shanking opponents in the ribs or something.

I called a radio show for the first time because the host said ‘he hopes there are criminal charges presented against those responsible.’ People are going so overboard with this.

One of the ass clowns on CBS Sports radio here was nearly in tears ranting about how awful it was. Voice cracking up and everything. It was hilarious.

Couldn’t agree more, in any of the sports I’ve played, if the opposing team had one particularly good player you better believe he would get special treatment. I wouldn’t want to do any lasting or serious damage. But if I could rough him up sufficiently to knock him out of the game or put him off his game, then I would. Trying to injure players is for scum, letting an opponent know you are there and are gonna be in his face all game is fair enough.
Also please Football Gods, bring Peyton to Arrowhead. It makes perfect sense, a division for the taking, geographically not too far, good young weapons to play with and best of all no Rex Ryan.

Im suprised Deadspin wasnt all over it.
The Saints bounty stuff is out of control. It’s one of those things that every team most likely does but no one talks about it. It’s offseason so broadcasters consistently try and find stories to harp on and Manning being released by the Colts was already talked about like crazy so now they have something else to talk about until FA begins.
As for my hopes, an ideal, unplausable scenario would have Manning coming to the skins, using the 1st round pick on a stud WR (although I actually think Leonard Hankerson, when healthy, is a nice deep threat), and then pick up a rookie QB in either the 2nd or 3rd and then focus on a nice big offensive line. This way Manning plays and makes us better than we were, teaches said rookie, and we finally are on the path we need to be on.
That’s the ideal situation. I don’t want us to kill ourselves trying to reach RG3. I won’t be disappointed if we get him but it’s not my preferred route.
I like Shanahan. I like what he has done so far with this team and I think we are on the right path. This is the year that I have been waiting for since he came here. This is also the year that he needs to prove himself to Snyder or else he is gone. I wouldn’t mind seeing Kyle gone though.

I don’t think I can see Peyton going to the same division as his brother though. I think he will stay AFC, probably Miami.
ESPN reporting that WAS trades up to the #2 pick in the draft.
Prob they realized Peyton was serious about avoiding divisional matchups with Eli…

You already have Jesus, and now you want Peyton too? No way, he is coming to the Chiefs.
Colts released Dallas Clark and Joseph Addai. Jeff Saturday, Reggie Wayne and Jake Tamme are free agents. Oh, and so is Peyton.
I smell a Miami reunion. Maybe the Colts can cut Pierre Gar�§on too. Reggie Bush / Joseph Addai is a hell of a speed / power combo. Brandon Marshall and Reggie as your WR Corps? Pimp. Jake Tamme as your outlet valve?
Plus, Dolphins have plenty of cap room and an owner willing to spend. Oil up the wheels to the band wagon.
As for my 49ers, if they stand pat and maybe pick up a WR, they’ll be competitive.

Either way he always loses to the Chargers!!
Wow. Just wow.
Well the Jets made Sanchise the 7th highest paid qb in the league… LOL
The skins must be sold on rg3, give up 1st(6th) and second round this yr plus two more 1st rounders. ^^wow is right.

as a Rams fan, I was hoping to see them deal with CLE (figuring at the #4 spot, either Blackmon or Kalil would def be available)
but when WAS wants to mortgage the future (again!) the way they do, I’m pretty sure you gotta let em…

I hope so, although I have a feeling now Peyton will be off to worship at the altar of the Elway the buck toothed jackass.
