Ndamukong Suh, who is perhaps the dirtiest defensive player in the NFL, took the opportunity Sunday to admonish the Saints for running a reprehensible bounty program. Speaking prior to the NASCAR Sprint Cup race Sunday, Suh told the Charlotte Observer “It’s unfortunate to hear these things come out. Me personally, I don’t take part in those things and knowing my teammates and knowing my coaches, we wouldn’t allow that. “I understand it’s a tough situation the commissioner has to deal with. As he has in the past, he’s going to deal with it with a stiff hand. Hopefully, people can learn from the mistakes and make an example out of it.” But wait a second, Ndamukong, your head coach was on Gregg Williams’ staff in Tennessee from 1999-2000. Are you sure Jim Schwartz wouldn’t allow something like that? He might not, but given Suh’s propensity for lying, it’s hard to take his word as the truth. via MLive

Maybe Gregg Williams Should Have Used The “Hot Babes On Defense” System Instead Of Bounties

Then again it would probably have unintended consequences as it did for a Swedish floorball coach who found himself in trouble after using a unique method to coach defense.

The true scandal of BountyGate is hidden in the hyperbole

I didn't want to write anything about the BountyGate coverage knowing I could never give an unbiased, fair assessment of the scandal as a lifelong Saints fan.  I've always been curious what it'd be like to have my team at the center of a scandal big enough it got its own "Gate" attached to it... now I know, it sucks.  This is worse than going through the...

Former Redskin George Stark Says Joe Gibbs Handed Out $100 Bills For Hits

Gregg Williams, the man at the center of "Bountygate," worked under Joe Gibbs as the Redskins defensive coordinator from 2004 to 2007, so naturally, Gibbs was asked about whether bounty programs existed in Washington and he said they absolutely did not.

Spygate has been thrust back into the limelight following the recent revelations regarding the New Orleans Saints' bounty program. But why?

Trouble In New Orleans by G.W. Gras

The world of sports is a funny thing.  One minute - an athlete, coach or franchise can be on top of the world and the next minute, fall flat on their face.  In 2009 the New Orleans Saints stood atop the football universe as Super Bowl Champs.  Every player and coach on that team became hero's to a city that was literally left in ruin due to the devastation left in 2005 by...
