    You are probably correct. Shades of Buddy Ryan.
    Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

    Williams to meet with NFL after bounties uncovered

    It just keeps getting better and better... Wonder how long it will take Jeff Fisher, the Clams, sorry Ram, head coach to fire this clown?

    Saints GM and coach admit blame

    And the beat goes on...

    The NFL said it confirmed Benson was unaware of the program, and that he told Loomis to stop it immediately, but that Loomis did not. The league also said Payton, though not directly involved, was aware of the bounty pool, but did nothing to stop it.
    Someone explain to me how Benson could tell someone to stop something that he didn't know about...

    Professional football, as we know it, won't be around much longer. When I played football as a kid, if you had a chance to take a good shot at someone, you took it. It was part of the game. Even in baseball, I rounded third base one time, lowered my shoulder into the catcher who was waiting to tag me, and knocked him out. He was out cold. Nobody complained. Political correctness run amok ...
