“I still don’t feel as though there is proof that guys received certain benefits from making dirty plays or making plays during the game,” Sharper said. “To say that you are going to fine guys because word of mouth or someone says or someone might speculate or someone might have a rumor out there saying that this guy came out and put a certain amount of money up to put a player out of a game, I don’t know the truth behind that and I don’t know if there is enough information to prove that.”

Andrew Juge of Saints Nation stops by to explain why Sean Pamphilon didn’t release the Gregg Williams tape for any other reason than to make a name for himself. Ralph explains why John Clayton’s theory about the Saints having a different head coach every week until Joe Vitt returns from suspension might be the best idea ever. Andrew and Ralph come up with fun ways that the Saints could pick the coach every week, like a giant wheel or Punch Out from the Price is Right. And Ralph figures out a scenario where his mom coaches Week 3! Also, they discuss how the Saints need to avoid the circus of Drew Brees missing OTAs.

New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton appealed his season-long suspension this week and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell denied the appeal, which means the Saints now need an interim coach. According to ESPN’s Chris Mortensen, that interim coach will not be Bill Parcells.
Adam Schefter is now reporting “it’s looking more and more like” the Saints will be looking internally to assistant head coach Joe Vitt to fill the interim role. Of course, Vitt is facing a six-game suspension in the bounty scandal, which is scheduled to begin after the preseason. So choosing him as interim coach would mean the Saints would also need another interim coach for the first six games of the season.
Shortly after the Saints punishment was announced, reports surfaced that Payton had talked to Parcells about taking the job. Judging by what each side said, it seemed like Parcells coaching the Saints for one season was a legitimate possibility, but that apparently won’t be happening anymore.

With the twelfth pick of the 2012 CSC Community Mock Draft, the Seattle Seahawks (chosen by BASAINT) select…
Melvin Ingram, DE, South Carolina
Pete Carroll will feel like he has died and woke up with a So Cal co-ed if Melvin Ingram falls to him here (wait…half of that has already happened)! Melvin Ingram, a defensive end from the University of South Carolina, comes in at 6 foot 1 and 264 lbs. He will be the best DL in the draft, in my opinion. A lot of people would like to see Quinton Coples out of North Carolina but I see him as a boom or bust type prospect. Many experts are scared that once he gets his guaranteed dollars he may lose his motivation.
I can guarantee that you won’t see that with Melvin Ingram. He has seen elite competition from playing in the SEC. The thing that stood out most to me about Ingram had to be his hands. I have heard the force that his hands come down with is comparable to the late great Reggie White. You have to admit, that is quite the compliment. Melvin Ingram has a first blow and a swim move that will put him with the elite pass rushers despite the fact he doesn’t have elite edge speed. While Ingram could stand to bulk up 20 pounds, the fact that he will only get stronger and his technique will only get better is scary.
The draft is full of decisions. Melvin Ingram vs. Quinton Coples will be a decision that will keep many people up at night. I could compare the two at a glance. Melvin Ingram obviously played with elite competition in the SEC. Quinton Coples was spotty at best during his time at North Carolina. Some experts questioned his motivation. I actually spoke with a North Carolina fan (yeah they actually exist) and he told me that Coples only plays hard when on television and even then he still take plays off. Melvin Ingram has durability issues and that could be a hamper. I can see an injury keeping Coples sidelined for awhile since he gives half effort even while healthy.
There is no argument that athletically Coples has Ingram beat hands down but the intangibles must go to Ingram and that is one of the reasons that Pete Carroll and his college co-eds must draft him here. Then again Pete Carroll sometimes thinks he is the ultimate motivator so it could go either way.
Below are the complete results from our community mock draft.

Brian Frederick: Saints Fans Are Being Unfairly Punished by the NFL
It’s extremely hypocritical for Goodell to be so harsh on bounties while continuing to claim that fans would prefer an 18-game season, which would lead to more injuries. (Most fans don’t want 18 games, they would rather not have to pay regular price for 4 preseason games, but the NFL intentionally ignores a 16-2 option that would reduce player injuries and fan costs.)
