If you dare ... Bountygate.

The argument is that it wasn’t really cheating, just dirty play. Which, if you’re making that argument to begin with, you have to admit that your team has/had problems. It just feels like revisionist history. But, I do this for a living (somehow) and so I know that you’re going to get some semblance of that from NFL fans. It’s just part of it.

Because of that, I didn’t really want to… I’ve had this idea for an article for a LONG time. A definitive breakdown of just how the Saints cheated. But, I figured, bide your time ya ugly bastid, because eventually you’re going to HAVE to write that article. Well that time is now, as current Saints head coach Sean Payton gave an interview to some shrimp boat captain this week, decrying what a “sham” the entire BountyGate Scandal was, and decrying his LOSS OF SALARY from the season he was suspended. You can’t make this stuff up.

Now, I could delve into the investigation against Payton, Greg(gggg) Williams and company, and I probably will. But, I think that most of us are visual learners, so what better way to remind Payton/everyone in Louisiana of the culmination of BountyGate than to show them play-by-play, the 2009 NFC Championship game. Where player after player hit Favre (and company) late, and low (while driving them to the ground).
