Roger Goodell has come down hard on the Saints docking them two 2nd round picks, fining them $500,000 and suspending Sean Payton for the entire year.
I'm glad Goodell is lowering the boom. Obviously he couldn't take away a first round pick this year because the Saints don't have one, so I feel the 2 second rounders, one in 2012 the other 2013, is fair. Payton being suspended for a year is a harsh penalty, but warranted I feel. Goodell needs to make sure this never happens again, and I believe this suspension will do that. Also,. Greg Williams has been suspended indefinitely. Kinda makes me feel bad for the Rams getting shafted like this, but I guess that happens. GM Loomis was suspended 8 games and fined $500,000. Assistant Coach Vitt was suspended 6 games.
What are your thoughts?
