Saints Bounty Ledger: A Reboot

Hans Petersen Jun 2 2012, 7:32a

Jason Cole of Yahoo! Sports reports that sources are telling him that the NFL has the actual evidence Saints and NFL fans have been calling for (in the form of a ledger), documenting the existence of the Saints bounty program. Could this be the 'smoking gun' that puts the final nail in the coffin of the Saints bounty case - what, wait?

"Mr. Vilma, the state bar forbids me from promising you a big cash settlement. But just between you and me, I promise you a big cash settlement." Seriously though, I'll be shocked if Vilma is successful in what seems at first glance to be a very ill-advised crusade.

"At no time did I ever tell Anthony Hargrove to lie or deny the existence (of the alleged bounty program)," Vitt said. "He can say whatever he wants to say. It just didn't happen."

Former Saints DE Anthony Hargrove ordered to lie about bounty scandal by Vitt and Williams

In an exclusive report by Yahoo! Sports editor Jason Cole, it is revealed that former Saints DE Anthony Hargrove was specifically ordered to lie about the bounty program by Joe Vitt and Gregg Williams. From the Yahoo piece... "Hargrove said Williams then said he was going to deny the existence of any bounty system, and that both Williams and Vitt instructed Hargrove to do the same. Williams also said: "Those [expletives at the NFL] have been trying to get me for years" and if all the Saints "stay on the same page, this will blow over."" Seems to me that now that the lashings have been handed out to players, some former Saints are willing to throw management under the bus a bit further. WHO DAT GOT DEM BAGS ON DEY HEADS?!?!
