Jonathan Vilma banned for year

The NFL suspended four players Wednesday for their roles in the New Orleans Saints' bounty system, including linebacker Jonathan Vilma for the entire 2012 season.

In addition to Vilma, defensive tackle Anthony Hargrove (now with the Green Bay Packers) was suspended eight games, defensive Will Smith four games and linebacker Scott Fujita (now with the Cleveland Browns) three games.

All of the suspensions are without pay.

All four player suspensions will be appealed, according to NFL source who told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter, "get ready for a massive multiple legal battle over this on several fronts."

1. Packers and Browns should sue Saints

for loss of services of players

3. That was my thought. Shouldn't they get compensated either monetarily or with draft pick(s)??

2. Expect court case with this...

taking a years pay from Vilma one of the reasons.

4. Since Vilma knocked Kurt Warner outta the league

Only fair for the NFL to award the Cards Drew Brees.
