Brees Reiterates That Nfl Has Provided “No Meaningful Evidence”

I have no problem with him. Deny, deny, deny. It's what I would expect him to do. Stand up and deny any wrongdoing on members of his team. Sure, everyone knows it's a lie, but don't throw your team under the bus when you don't have to...

Keeping his mouth shut is a far better option than lying when everyone knows he's lying. Also, lying when there isn't anything to gain from it is both dishonest and stupid.

Saints Report is an absolute riot right now :lol:

They all keep talking about how Roger Goodell is going to be sorry he tried to discipline the Saints. It's funnier than watching Ralphie dream about how he would make his parents regret washing his mouth out with soap.

(only less mature, and a lot less intelligent)

I mean, I think he's trying to stand up for his franchise and defend them...But he is going about it all in the wrong way.... It's sad to see someone like Drew Brees do this to himself.

Why is it sad? I dont think I follow. It's vile and disgusting, yes. Sad mmmm not so much.

How about Demaurice Smith?

Commissioner Roger Goodell says he expects to have a conversation with the union before handing down punishment for any of the 22-27 players involved in the Saints pay-for-pain incentive program from 2009-11.

Smith says he’s yet to see any hard evidence that players participated in such a program.

“As of yet, they haven’t turned over anything that we would consider to be direct evidence of player involvement in a ‘pay to injure’ scheme that we could consider for discipline,” Smith told union publication ProPlayersInsider, via CBS Sports. “It’s very hard to have a productive discussion about punishment when one side has kept, to itself, all the information.

“What I would expect is to have a conversation soon and certainly it would be our expectation that the request for all information, as it relates to particular players, will be provided before any discipline takes place.”

Smith calls the media speculation surrounding player punishment a “very unfair situation.” He says when/if hard evidence is provided by the league, the union will take the side of player safety.

“Whether it comes down to Roger or myself, I don’t think either of us would prefer to have a disciplinary system that is being played out in public with people relying on less than full information. That does nothing to benefit the integrity of the men who play the game. It certainly does nothing to champion the disciplinary system. It does call into question issues of fairness and what’s appropriate.”

good lord its like a day care over there

People, we should look beyond Goodell to the driving force befind all of this. The owners are fighting for their potential financial lives with the upcoming concyssion cases. Its their own daned fault though. If they had a real system in place all along to take care of former players instead of being greedy, they wouldn't be in this mess. However, here we are. And JEFF PASH.....yes, the same stupid guy that nearly ruined negotiations for the owners during the CBA IS ADVICING GOODELL ON ALL THINGS BOUNTY-GATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's why Goodell is playing Hitler.

    • I think Bryce balls out again and the Panthers win in a close one.  Panthers will have a defender shadow CMC the whole game so I expect he'll be contained to under 100 yards.  
    • yeah, Steve was basically like on any actual topic that approached his flaws/problems.....89 went with the long winded, try to sound like a wise man strategy of just basically just pleading the 5th (and sprinkling in the idea that others could of been wrong or wrong too).   also, in terms of the assaults and stuff like that....it feels like old 89, I feel has sort of forgotten his well-documented confessions and apologies about that aspect and era of his and was trying to re-write his story/image in hindsight.   And in all honesty, it seemed like a PR move on the twitter/cheating stuff also attempting to play himself as not the bad guy some think with the intentional vague suggestions. and the Pivot and all these athlete moves to basically take the reigns and power from traditional outlets exposes they have just as bad as flaws if not more often than the traditional media folks.  I mean I do like the free form long talk when dudes are telling stories but all this stuff is largely flawed and controlled PR often. 
    • Sadly, I agree and I’m a huge Melo fan. Might be time to ship him out. Don’t want to make the same mistakes the Pels did. They should’ve gotten rid of Zion two years ago.
