the Saints' situation is very complex.... there a very real possibility that employees of the Saints(head coach Sean Payton,and general manager Mickey Loomis)will be suspended for some time,next season.... players may be suspended,for games(Jonathan Vilma,who reportedly put a 10.000 dollar "bounty",on the health of Brett Favre,before the 2009 NFC Championship game,against the Minnesota Vikings)... in the NFL report on what happened,there were 22,to 27 players involved,in the system,supervised by Gregg Williams,now the St. Louis Rams' defensive coordinator...
there could be forfeiture of draft picks in the 2012 NFL Draft,and i would not be surprised that the forfeiture of draft picks going into 2013(not many in 2013;in that case,because pro football teams are really built in the draft)... much of the punishment will be this season,along with massive fines... anything around $250,000,to $500,000 dollars,is massive...
i believe that Gregg Williams is simply persona non grata,in NFL,or suspended for a year,with a fine of more than $500,000 dollars,because he is the gamesmaster,of the scandal,and the likelihood that he did same,in Buffalo,and Washington,makes it worse!!!
there is one person in this situation whom i really feel sorry for,and that is:New Orleans Saints' owner Tom Benson,who honestly did not deserve this scandal... Mr. Benson is a classy owner...
