I changed the name of the thread. I thought it was more fitting.
In the end, though, I don't think anything is done to Mickey Loomis or the Saints for this because 1) it happened too long ago and 2) there's too little evidence. It's also quite timely that ESPN would want to speed "weeks" investigating the Saints right on the heels of the bounty scandal. All ESPN is doing is trying to increase their traffic and ratings. Why else would this story be coming out 8 years after the fact?
And, by the way, from now on this wiretapping scandal will be called Tap Dat by me.

Yeah I just thought that he had signed based on an article someone posted about a month and half ago. Basically it was why I was asking.

I'm not too sure if I'd want to have a trophy along with a reputation that's going to be as soiled as the Saints is going to be. They make the Patriots look like the Lord's team. The fact that the Saints have a trophy does not bother me. Lots of irrelevant teams with absolutely no history have trophies, i.e. the Marlins, Diamondbacks, Ducks. I just store that Super Bowl in the same part of my memory that those championships reside. Do people even remember that the Bucs won it all like ten years ago?

Sore loser much mate?
They beat us fair and square.
Let's be honest, every team that isn't cheating isn't trying hard enough, I'd much rather we pushed the limits and won than being a loveable loser. Plus it's not like with our recent history we can really talk about off field crap.

I think Bert Macklin would find a way to defend the Saints if a locker room video of the team kicking puppies leaked.

Every team kicks puppies. Don't be naive.

The lack of evidence is probably the only thing saving him from a lifetime ban if this is true. However, I seriously doubt it is.

I agree. If it's true and can be proven, he probably gets a lifetime ban.
I don't think it's true, though. It would be too hard to pull off, and the returns wouldn't justify the conspiracy.

I'm just waiting to see the lengthy suspensions for Roman Harper, Jon Vilma, Malcom Jenkins, Will Smith, Sedrick Ellis, and possibly more.

You're right. More people remember how many the Vikings choked away than remember the bucks won.

No I'm just not going sit around while EVERY person in this thread shits on my team. I mean other saints fans are even quiet about this. It's sad but I'm the lone fan trying to actually defend my team not from what they've done but all the hate in this thread. It's sad to see people wish so much hate on a franchise. Especially with no evidence in this case.

The thing is, if people don't hate your team, it's because you suck, so the rest of us really don't care.
