yeah exactly.. imagine someone with an actual name. Originally I felt the media was blowing the "bounty" portion out of proportion, with the more info trickling out from the ridiculously long report the more shocking the shit really is.. it's bad shit and I certainly take back what I said about spygate vs bountygate with the new stories coming out

Well when you had both Aaron Rodgers and Eli Manning in the same division, you gotta take any chance you can get to secure victory. Times are rough.

**Tajin** · 2012-03-23 21:30

I don't see how 15k is any different from 1 dollar when it comes to 'I'll put this mofo in the hospital on purpose'

That was the first game of 2006, and Brad Johnson was a boss, coming off a good 2005 after Culpepper got hurt.

Sad part is Washington only had one sack in that game, lol.

**noblemountain** · 2012-03-23 21:57

it isn't really any different...just seems high for Brad Johnson. I figured the bounties were inconsequential to players who make millions every year...just motivators to go out and make plays. Like stickers on the helmet in college. Acknowledgement from your peers/coaches is what the real motivation is. Everyone works harder for a bonus. That is why the same salesman who didn't do shit last month will work 18 hours every day to win a Rolex that he could buy at any time with his salary. It's the competition factor that drives him. You would just assume they'd offer a happy meal for Brad Johnson though...15k is nuts.

edit: @ Bregor, gotcha...I missed the 01-05 seasons for the most part 'cause I spent the majority of that time in the desert...just never imagined Brad being good. lol

And yes, Saturday's a fantastic center, one who rarely gets as much credit as he deserves, but so it goes for O-Linemen.

I get it from the 'money' and the 'motivation' standpoint I'm just saying from the 'its bad' (or at least, against the rules) standpoint 1mill or 1 dollar is the same thing.

Because that was the point of me posting the video.

you post a video of Satruday and Manning arguing in response to someone mentioning how the Broncos should have gone after him.. my assumption is you were pointing out he and Manning didn't get along, so I pointed out teammates argue.

did I miss anything?

It was a playful jab at that post. But thanks for reading something into it that really wasn't there.

**Akiyama** · 2012-03-23 22:54

np, that's what I do

**archibaldcrane** · 2012-03-24 01:06

No worries, Aaron Rodgers will never throw 3 straight incompletions in the red zone.

This will be a welcome change for Saturday.

what if he throws to finley three times in a row

**Chun Liroy** · 2012-03-24 01:15

We all know damn well that if he doesn't make the first two, he's not making the third.

**Rhinox** · 2012-03-24 09:10

Not really. If they cut him he would've gone early on waivers. Bears would've had no shot

**Rhinox** · 2012-03-24 10:31

lol..
