With the recent Bounty allegations arising, I feel it is appropriate to address the issue. Firstly, I understand that it has been a part of the sport for longer than the news shows, however, it puts the league in a bad light. It has gotten to a point where players are even setting bounties to protect themselves! That's right. Cris Carter, future hall of fame Viking, just released information stating he would set bounties against other players who threatened him. Carter played during the 90's and into the 2000's, and surely this has been going on for longer. Thankfully, Roger Goodell has handled this issue admirably. He has stuck to his guns and is taking this issue very seriously. It's not good for the sport and hopefully those who are guilty will be made examples of to detract future players from participating.
