He wouldn't mention any other players that he knows participated (except for Bill Romanowski) in pay for injury bounties, but he said there were a ton.

He said it was rampant in his day and he is absolutely positive it was just as rampant up until the recent crackdown.

So this pretty much shoots down Guido's contention that pay for injury bounties simply don't exist and that he doesn't at all believe any player anywhere would ever pay for someone else to be injured.

You have many of the facts wrong about this story. Carter said early in a game Romo told him that he was going to "end his career". Carter didn't say anything about Romo being a bounty hunter. Carter said he went into the huddle and told the linemen to target Romo and he'd buy them dinner.

That was the whole story. I heard it live on Mike and Mike.
