I think the union is still investigating and when they are done, then the league will start on the players.
Can the league just make the Saints forfeit all the games this year?

I never had a coach tell me to hurt anyone either. But they did tell me to knock the shit out of people. But I'm assuming your coaches, during the pep talks would say things like, "I want to seem good tackling! I want to see some not-too-hard hitting! I want you to hit them so hard that they almost stop moving forward, but not so hard that they would move backward and might possibly risk injury! LET'S GO OUT THERE AND GIVE 50% AND SHOW THEM THAT WE COULD DO MORE BUT WE WON'T BECAUSE WE MIGHT HURT SOMEONE! LET'S KIND OF GO!"

It's always bad to be the first guy caught when the league wants to make an example about something they know is going on everywhere.

All we need now is for Drew to sit out this year.

I was moved from offense to defense because of my willingness to hit people. I remember the day it happened, where the wideouts and secondary were running 1 on 1 drills. The defenders had arm pads and were supposted to hit the receivers after they caught the ball. This drill trains you to hold on to the ball when hit.
Well the d-backs were barely hitting the guys. As a wideout I volunteered to switch sides. I de-cleated the first guy I faced, and the coaches patted me on the back. I never played offense again... and this was just high school.

No, I understand it perfectly well. This is an NFL who gives wrist slaps and small suspensions for illegal hits but goes all eye-for-an-eye over a pittance paid for legal hits.
Bounty hunting in the NFL is not new, it has been around a long time. I just wonder what it is this time that is causing the NFL to apeshit. What did the Saints do to piss off the NFL?

Yes, and the goal of the Oklahoma drill was to knock the ever-loving crap out of your teammate. It was one of my favorites.

I honestly don't care about the safety of the players. They make millions of dollars to play a game for my entertainment and I find hard hits entertaining. I don't wish injury on anyone but I do wish a hard game with the chance on injury on every single one of them.
All of this pussification may not be 'ruining the sport' like the hysterical whiners claim but it is taking something away from it.
