that the Saints are the only team doing this.
But again, my point is not to have anyone's approval of my boycott, with what little effect
it may have. Just saying that this punishment is over the top and they can kiss my entire A$$.

Tell me the last team that has done something like this and has been caught and exposed to the public like the saints have........

What did the Patriots get for cheating? I am not saying that anyone's health
was at risk in their cheating scam, I am asking what did they get? Do you remember?

comparing apples to oranges here bud.

We are talking about PEOPLES health and lives here, not cheating.

Thats like comparing robbery to murder if you will, they will get different punishments obviously.

He wasn't suspensed however

They also lost a first round draft pick. I am going to give the Saints as much sympathy as the Pats got which is 0.
