In fact, the players and Coach Vitt have testified that no player ever received any payment if the Saints lost the game or if a penalty occurred on the play OR if a player was seriously injured like a blown out knee or something.

The Saints were doing exactly what you just said you don't have a problem with. Mike Cerullo is the ONLY person that ever claimed that there was ever any intent to injure. The ONLY person.

Well none of us were there....so none of us can say for sure. Mike Cerrulo may just be disgruntled (bet you guys are wishing you would have just given him a real superbowl ring....eh?) Unfortunately it is all speculation, but I don't see a coach taking a yearlong suspension and a DC maybe being indefinitely suspended going away quietly if there wasn't at least some partial truths to what went down....Payton lost millions (paying a lawyer to fight it would have been far cheaper!)
