the Patriot were sanctioned because the league sent out a letter for the teams to stop recording D signals and they kept doing it and they were caught messing with the ball post Ref approval. That's cheating
Same with the Saints - Marty ran a 'bounty' every Raider week : he paid any player fines, which qualifies. All teams did it. Or do it. Don't they all play for money...anyway?? How does an extra pool make anything more insidious??
You're talking about different times and public attitudes and different views on player safety
What DIDN'T get talked about were all the missing pain pills from the Saints training facility, and how Sean Payton and Gregg Williams were both involved in THAT - thousands of missing Vicodin and Morphine pills. The FBI was going to get involved, it was getting ugly until the NFL dropped 'Bountygate' and disciplined the main culprits behind the missing pills. And Jonathon Vilma, for some reason. I guess to make it look legit, but he got screwed...
Bullshit...missing pills isn't an FBI issue. It's state and local matter

Do you have anything that isn't some kind of BS you invented on the 8 inch space between your ears?
