SAINTS FIGHTING BACK, WINNING SOME BATTLES:
Mickey Loomis cleared in wiretapping probe, spotlight turns to ESPN and John Barr
Way back when columnists were suggesting Gregg Williams be thrown in jail and the media was slurping up the BountyGate shock and horror fed to them by the NFL, ESPN went all-in with an explosive report further condemning the New Orleans Saints organization.
State Police Say Mickey Loomis Didn’t Rig the Superdome to Eavesdrop on Opponents, but What Will Louis Freeh Find? | The Big Lead
Right now, it looks like ESPN relied on a bad source.
New Orleans Saints owner Tom Benson, Roger Goodell meet - ESPN
Benson wanted to address the manner in which his team has been treated for its role in an alleged bounty program, at a time when a Louisiana judge is waiting to rule on linebacker Jonathan Vilma's lawsuit against the league, according to sources.
Tom Benson, Roger Goodell reportedly met Tuesday morning - New Orleans Saints Football NFL News - NOLA.com
The two sides had been planning on meeting for a while and tried to do so last week, according to the report.
Report: Benson, Goodell meet to discuss bounty case | ProFootballTalk
The NFL has encountered significant resistance to the suspensions, once the process turned from coaches and executives to the players. By refusing to disclose key evidence and by publicizing and otherwise leaking information that contained troubling flaws, the NFL opened the door for scrutiny.
Daily Special, August 14, 2012 - Who Dat Social Club
Roger knew this would happen. There is only so much a body can take. It’s like the Stockholm syndrome: hold America hostage long enough, and it will start begging for Browns vs. Jaguars. Anything, please, just make it stop.
State Police: No evidence of Saints wiretapping - Yahoo! Sports
''We found no corroborating evidence that Mickey Loomis or anybody in the Saints was engaged in wiretapping or eavesdropping,'' Edmonson said.
