Tom Benson, while remaining silent publicly, has expressed his disgust with the NFL to Vilma by phone, according to Vilma. Benson has also sent a message with his installation of a huge photo of Sean Payton at the team's indoor practice facility with the glare of Payton overseeing the practice field with the statement, "Do Your Job."

Despite the fact that everyone involved steadfastly has denied the 'bounty' bit, you still don't seem inclined to seriously question Goodell about his evidence or his motives. It certainly makes me think that the real 'cost of doing business' in the modern NFL is that media don't think they can question Goodell and coaches would be foolish to 'trust' that they would get a fair shake.''

Solid dude, that Drew Brees.
Tell us: Do you agree with Brees that nobody trusts Goodell?
Everybody talks about Roger Goodell. Nobody seems to be able to do anything about him.
