The New Orleans Saints who did everything right in the 2009 NFL season which resulted them in not only winning SB XLIV but restoring pride and great feeling in a community ravaged by Hurrican Katrina;now are up against it.Their former defensive coordinator Greg Williams had a bounty program to target players such as Brett Farve and Kurt Warner.Monetary incentives to get these players out of the game and/or hurt them badly.Football is a brutal sport.It is a game I adore watching and I have been watching since the late 1970's.Yet when it is played outside the rules it becomes something horrid.Now Greg Williams,Sean Payton(who knew what was going on),and the general manager must suffer fines and suspensions.Moreover the Saints must also suffer and lose draft picks because this behavior can not go on and nothing will hurt a team more than to take away their future.
Roger Goodell's actions here will determine his legacy as the NFL is coming under fire for players being disabled and/or what occured during individuals' careers leading to those men having trouble living whole and healthy lives after football.Also the concussion issues as well with questions on whether or not players can go back and play without first running a battery of concussion test after a player gets concussed in a game.
All too important issue for a league that is trying to keep its spot as the most popular sport and beloved sport in America.Take care and please be well.
