Bountygate

Albert Breer@AlbertBreer

NFL announces Jonathan Vilma has been suspended for the 2012 season. Hargrove gets 8 games. Will Smith 4 games. Fujita 3 games.


Judy Battista@judybattista

NFL says Vilma helped in "establishing and funding the program".



Wasn't expecting a full season.  Fujita is a Brown and Hargove plays for the Packers.

fugyeah!!!
Hope it's true hhahahahahahahaha
and now the Curtis Lofton signing *officially* makes sense
i love this offseason.
Yes i heard it was a year long suspenion awhle back. Saints FO seen it coming. Its why they signed Lofton.
I did expect a full season for Vilma and it's well deserved. Once the Commish came down hard on the brass I knew Vilma was up the creek without a paddle.
Love it. Bunch of dicks.
They signed several LBers
Hargrove gets 8 games. Will Smith 4 games. Fujita 3



Are they the only ones??
lofton is a two down linebacker who can't cover the pass.

man i sure wish we had tight ends that could exploit that.
Actually at this point in their careers Lofton is an improvement over Vilma.
SaintsReport meltdown in 3, 2, 1.....

I thought we were going to make the playoffs anyway, but this is just the cherry on top.

I thought more players would get some short suspensions though.

Dang, so in truth all they are really losing is Smith.
No Roman Harper?

Lofton is much better than Vilma, at least last season. Better in coverage and against the run.
NFL Sirius reports Vilma got the hammer bc of 2 specific cash bounties of 10k each to knock Warner and Favre out of the game.

Yeah it's on espn now.

Bwhahahahahaha eat poo and die saints
I don't care if it helps us on the field I'm just glad the commish took money out of Vilma's pocket.
what can't be discounted either is that vilma is the unquestioned leader of that defense.
So all the talk about "losing half their defense and special teams" was out to lunch?

I believe he was going to be released regardless. He's hit the wall.
