How do you explain Yahoo then retracting the story and re-releasing it naming the Carolina game in October as the real game? How do you explain the only cartoff in that game was a linebacker?

How is this proof of a defensive bounty program? Can you explain that?

The more that comes out the worse it makes Goodell look. Not one thing Goodell has "leaked" has done anything but poke holes in his claims of an organized bounty program being run by the Saints targeting specific players. THAT is what was claimed and THAT is what has Saints fans in an uproar. Not some chicken shit locker room pool, cartoffs or not. That isn't what they were pushed for. They were punished for specific bounties on four named players - Warner, Favre, Newton and Rodgers.

Wrong, wrong, wrong

They were punished for running a bounty program that paid for performance AND injuries. Once again you are "MISSING" the focus here.

The focus is there was a pay for injure program. This is it. This is where it stops. The ledger proves that regardless of which players got hurt. I don't know how much better I can explain it.

Let's try it this way. The ledger proves an INTENT to pay for cart-offs. Just because the cart-offs didn't happen in that particular game and there were no payouts for that particular game it doesn't make it false or show "holes" in Goodell's case. You're so gung ho over the results that you're ignoring the fact that the ledger shows proof of an ATTEMPT or INTENT. The result is just an extra incentive but not the end of it.

Please tell me that you understand this concept because it's not hard to figure out.

Once again if I INTEND to murder somebody, but I fail, then I am STILL GUILTY regardless of the result. This is the same concept.
