This is far from over. Grab your popcorn for the whining!

Oh, I am fully expecting punishments. The NFL have backed themselves into a corner. That's why they keep offering reduced deals to get Vilma and the NFLPA to drop their suits, but the players are having none of that. The league has already backed off of the original claims of ongoing bounties on specific players. The only thing the league has shown proof of is the existence of a performance pool exactly like the one they endorsed for the Packers several years back. The Saints publicly acknowledged the ongoing pool from the beginning. But, that wasn't why they were punished.
