ESPN.com/nfl poll: Was the bounty scandal blown out of proportion?

I don't see how anyone can know whether or not it was overblown until the evidence has been revealed. If it turns out that bonuses were offered for players getting carted off the field or getting hurt or whatever, it wasn't overblown. If it turns out bonuses were offered for making impact plays, like interceptions or big stops or whatever, it definitely was overblown.


while your sentiment is correct, I have actually watched every single game of every single season in question and I guarantee you the Saints did not try to intentionally hurt anyone. So basically the evidence I put before you is 100% accurate. The evidence Goodell tries to parle to everyone is locker room talk. Now get out there and knock his head off!... oh damn now its jailtime.
