commentary...

i always respected Brett Favre,as a NFL quarterback,even when he was with the New York Jets,or the Minnesota Vikings... i did not like the way that he retired,and unretired,so many times,because it made me sick to stomach,over and over... the NFL "bounty" scandal has a face to it-Gregg Williams-but there is an another face,or picture,to it,too... a picture of Brett Favre being carried off the Superdome turf,during the 2009 NFC Championship,on that cart... at the time,i thought that was nothing was wrong with the way that the New Orleans Saints' defense was just pounding Favre,but now i despise the Saints,and always will,and i thought that the Saints played fair,but not now...
the scandal just makes me want to vomit,because it is just so obvious that many of the Saints' employees,coaches,and players knew of what was going on,and did nothing to stop it,and now that i know that it was done,possibly,in Buffalo(where Williams was head coach,of the Bills),and in Washington,where Williams was defensive coordinator,of the Redskins,from 2004-2007... if they do not throw the proverbial "book",at Williams,i will believe that the NFL does not care,about player safety...
there is a precedent for harsh discipline:in 1962,Paul Hornung,of the Green Bay Packers,and Alex Karras,of the Detroit Lions,were suspended,for a year,for gambling allegations... in my opinion,that is the only acceptable punishment for Williams,to me... as for the Saints:take away draft picks,in upcoming NFL Draft,fire the employees who know about the scandal,and give them a high six figure fine,maybe seven figures... that would stop it,in its tracks...
