BLACK ATHLETES among those targeted by New Orleans Saints NFL Coach Payton
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Sean Payton is seeking some relief from the NFL.
The Saints coach has decided to file an appeal on Friday with the league on his season-long suspension for his involvement in New Orleans' bounty system, a person familiar with the decision said.
The appeal will also ask NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell for his guidance on the parameters of the suspension, the person told The Associated Press Friday on condition of anonymity because the league and the Saints have not announced Payton's plan to appeal.
Goodell last week announced the suspension of Payton, starting Sunday, for his role in connection with New Orleans' bounty system, which offered improper cash bonuses for big hits that either knocked opponents out of games or left them needing help off of the field.
The commissioner has since said the Saints' coach would be allowed to continue working if he appealed, while the process played out. However, he added that the appeal would be expedited, indicating that Payton would not likely be able to add on much work time should his appeal be upheld.
Goodell also said at NFL meetings this week in Florida that Payton could have some contact with the team but did not go into detail, and Payton indicated that he was still a little unclear about that as well.
With all the uncertainty, Payton is trying to compress as much planning for the 2012 season into whatever time he has left at Saints headquarters this weekend.
In my opinion, Payton should be arrested and prosecuted for "Authorizing" HITS on opposing players. The injuries sustained could have led to "death" or permanent disability. If the league agrees to ANY concessions they should be made to account for their decisions. Let's just say Payton put out "contracts" to "hurt, injure, or cripple" BLACK ATHLETES, as many of those involved would have been. Get Jesse Jackson and the "boys" on this situation.
