The head coach of the New Orleans Saints, Sean Payton has been suspended for one year without pay for his involvement in running the bounty hunter program. Players were getting paid extra money if they injured players from other teams. Roger Goodell the commissioner of the NFL, came down on Sean Payton hard and completely was against the bounty hunting that was going on within the New Orleans Saints organization.
I do agree that Sean Payton as long as other coaches and players involved in this issue should have been punished for their involvement in bounty hunting, but Coach Payton's punishment was way too harsh. If you play football, you should accept the fact that you may get injured. In football, the other person is trying to hurt you. That is a big part of the game. A one year suspension for Coach Payton is way to harsh, and I believe that Roger Goodell should enforce a much less harsh punishment.
