And now, Congress is involved

[Mr. Scot]

Congressman wants Goodell to testify before antitrust subcommittee

Specifically, Congressman Cedric Richmond, D-LA (Surprised?)

To be clear, the Antitrust Committee is the one Congress typically uses when they want to scare the NFL.

I feel like this is just Louisiana politicians trying to stamp their name on this. Free publicity... Just like the dumbass lawyer.

Lived in LA for three years, some of the most corrupt pols in the nation.

Wouldn't expect any of them to miss an opportunity to score some brownie points with the voters back home.

What a joke - this congressman just ruined his reputation.  Even if the Saints DID get the penalty, the wouldn't have been guaranteed to win.  They also got the ball first in OT.  Embarrassment of a franchise and fanbase (and apparently the politicians in the state too).

Thanks to Mr Scott for bringing politics to the football forum after writing an essay against it two days ago.

I'm curious which people think is more embarrassing between 28-3 and this.

I'm gonna guess 28-3 but this is getting flat-out ridiculous.

I mean they still have Brees and Coach McDouchebag....are the fans finally realizing that going all in with a 33 million cap hit for Brees and no draft picks for 2019 might not be ideal?

Loomis will probably find some cap room but they keep kicking that can down the road...

Is it ok to call this stupid?  Cause this is stupid.

If it was done by Saint fans, I figure you're safe.

How does Congress always get involved into a sport ? Makes no sense
