Saints******' Suspensions may be overturned (reduced)...UPDATE* League refutes reports.

[Nine_Lives]

I think he's a pretty decent linebacker. Not a pro bowler but solid.

[Ivan The Awesome]

Don't care if Vilma comes back, it's the principles.

Stand your ground Commissioner..don't let these guys walk all over you.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

I actually want the Saints* to have everyone because when we beat them with a depleted roster Saints* fans will use the excuse that they were missing some of their best players (even though we were missing some of our best players last year).

Nonetheless, I would rather them be 100% when we woop their asses.

[KillerKat]

Goodell would be such a pussy to overturn the suspensions

[SIGCHI222]

Vilma is a marked man. Sick JStew on his ass again. I hope they are allowed to play Opening Day. "Do your Job", "Free Sean Payton", "Who Dat?"...who gives a fug? And I spelled FU(K not fug. I hate New Orleans more than Jeff Otah hates putting forth effort. I want these fools full strength and I want Goodell looking back at 7 IR'ed Taints players by week 5 thinking, "Maybe that wasn't such a good idea."

Bring it Goodell, we want all of them.

Goodell with no conviction. Stand your ground and make the call, man.

[Nine_Lives]

I've never liked Goodell and what he's doing to the NFL. Hope this jumps up and bites him in the ass.

[TheRed]

I don't even care, they will not get Sean Payton back either way. I just can't wait until we play them.

f-ck the Saints**

f-ck the Saints** fanz

f-ck Louisiana. That nobody wants me territory that the frenchies sold, the spanish abandoned, and then the frenchies sold again to the US for the equivalent of what Drew Brees makes every 2.5 minutes. Great investment there btw United States. Our own Kuwait of the west is good for some seafood exports to the rest of the real country and the virtual gas pump it represents but that is about it.

f-ck a million muther-f-ckn bridges on top of bridges.

F-ck the french quarter, the road apples, the queers in neon speedos , the mannequin that swings in the window, and the two homeless fast talkers that hold he "huge ass beer" signs and think you have to hold the sign and give them 5 bucks just because you dared set foot on Bourbon street (Yeah they got me with some line about needing money for the big combo at Popeyes)

Oh. And f-ck that whiney, muther-f-ckin panzy-ass bitch fest that is the new orleans saintz.

I think I just used up my f-bomb quota for the month of August but get this bullsh-t off of this board. I know they whine. I know they think everyone should give them a break because they got rained on real hard. I was just down there. People that live on the outskirts hate the town because its so full of whiners. The entire city is crooked. The feds just stepped in on their police force its so dirty and everything from building management to fire is bought and paid for by one corrupt organization or another.

The entire area is pure slut for hire with their hands out continuously while they squander whatever assets they actually have on ... yet another f-cking bridge.

Ditto.......

[Snake]

If he gives in all that will happen is more lawsuits.

[Evil Hurney]

Just FYI:

The NFL "has made no settlement offer" to

New Orleans Saints*

linebacker Jonathan Vilma regarding his season-long suspension for his role in a "bounty" program despite reports to the contrary, a source close to the situation told NFL.com and NFL Network reporter Steve Wyche on Monday morning.

The source told Wyche that the lack of an offer does not mean a proposal might not be made in the future.

I've never liked Goodell and what he's doing to the NFL. Hope this jumps up and bites him in the ass.

Other than a few random dimbulbs, pretty much everybody outside of Louisiana thinks he's handled this properly (or hasn't been hard enough).

[Lumps]

But Vilma is innocent remember? why would he settle for a punishment when its something he did not do? Sounds silly...
