(CBS News) NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell met with New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton and two other key members of the organization in New York Thursday to hear their appeal on suspensions for their part in "bounty" system.

Maybe the Saints should have to forfeit their Super Bowl XLIV trophy?

The Saints always struck me as the most "Ghetto" team in the NFL.

I would bet that there are plenty of NFL coaches just like Gregg Williams. This is nothing new.

Reminds me of the book/movie North Dallas Forty.

It’s a brutal game.

It would sure be interesting to hear this guy’s pre-game speeches during the 2009 post season. His advice on how to defend Warner, Favre, and Manning, three of biggest stars of the game and this idiot’s meal ticket, were surely even more repugnant than this.

I still say this was collusion and A&B at minimum and everyone involved should be prosecuted.
