Tebow is a Jet, Sean Payton Suspended for 1 Year

[LionRyan]

Both pieces of news dropped in the same MINUTE.

Jets sent a 4th to Denver for Tebow.

Payton loses a year because he was involved in the bounty nonsense.

and we haven't even gotten to the players yet. Wow.

Tebow trade might fall through because of contract language.

"Well.....****." - These guys:

 

[sliqwill]

apparently it costs with 'winning' trader $5 million to get Tebow...

Jets are in, the Jets are out, you put the Rams in and you shake it all about, you put the Tebow in, you put the Jaguars out, you put Tebow in and this is what its about...

Holy SH*t that is pretty harsh. Im sure Rodger is sending all teams a message w/that. if you have a bounty program (im sure most do) to knock it off or your *** is going to the meat grinder.

FYI, Payton had an email where someone was putting $5000 on Aaron Rodgers in the season opener :salut:

Not just someone, it was Michael Ornstein, a convicted felon, same guy who was selling fake jersey's to card companies that the card companies then cut up and put in football cards and claimed as game-worn, the same guy who was involved in the Super Bowl ticket scalping scheme, and the same guy who embezzled $350,000 from the NFL (but not the one from Sons of Anarchy). I'd imagine the punishment was in part for associating with this turd.

I think a big part of the severity is because of the cover up.

 

[deimos]

why was there a paper trail to begin with?

 

[andy]

I heard Shockey was snitchin'.

I heard Shockey was snitchin'.

Warren sapp said he snitched. turned out to be false.

I guess doing something immoral which has gone on for half a century is much worse than cheating for a competitive advantage. Wondering why Belicheck was never suspended.....

The NFL isn't getting sued over videotapes. They are getting sued over player injuries and the lasting effects. I think they want to throw out any possibility of this being allowed in the culture of the league during the next lawsuit.
