Bounty On Newton Was $5000

[Mr. Scot]

Offered by Mike Ornstein, per this article from the New York Times: Dealmaker Leaves Fingerprints on Another Scandal

The first e-mail was sent to New Orleans Saints* Coach Sean Payton on Sept. 3 from the federal prison system’s minimum-security camp in Florence, Colo. It promised $5,000 for Saints* players who delivered hard hits on Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers in the N.F.L.’s season-opening game a few days later.

The second message, sent a month later after the writer had been transferred to a halfway house, pledged $5,000 for hits on Carolina quarterback Cam Newton when the Saints* faced the Panthers.

That would have been for week five of last season.

Same week Payton threw a temper tantrum about the late hit call on Cam. Lol. Scumbag.

[TNPanther]

And they couldn't even do it.

Fug those dirty ass cheating scumbags and their fans. Forever the Aints**.

Ironic, I know :wacko:

Payton and his bunch take arrogance to a whole new level.

Is that the same game where Smitty started going off on Payton on the sidelines?

[KittyLover]

That is completely unreal. Payton and the NO franchise is just trash.

fug the aints**

Payton should be BANNED just like his little evil creature Williams

Pretty sure that was the second game. Didn't he do that in the Dome?

[TylerVagyler]

Pretty sure that was the second game. Didn't he do that in the Dome?

I think he did it in both. haha

[Mr. Scot]

Pretty sure that was the second game. Didn't he do that in the Dome?

Yeah, I think that was the later game.

I wonder, however, if this would have been the game where Smith was told by a Saints* player that he had to go after his legs.

I do remember a questionable sideline hit on Smith, but I don't recall which game it was in.

I guess Newton didn't command the $10,000 bounty......DISRESPECT!

[thefuzz]

After some of this info leaks out. We may think what the Commish handed down was too lenient!

[Mr. Scot]

Well, technically he drew the same amount as Aaron Rodgers in week one :lol:

I guess they upped the ante in the playoffs.
