I don't agree with that, but this could turn into another long debate, pretty sure purposely trying to end someone's career is a lot more severe but that's just me

i think it's arrogant, irresponsible, offensive and deserving of a long suspension. what the pats did was also arrogant, irresponsible, offensive and deserving of a long suspension. one can potentially end careers while profiting the people ending them. the other undermined the entire concept of fair competition. the only difficulty i have with the saints suspension is that it is so far above the 'standard' set with the patriots incident. i don't think the league is wrong this time. i think the league was wrong last time and the lack of coherence between the two egregious and damaging actions is disconcerting.
