Sean Payton accused of abusing Vicodin

DEA exploring Saints case

Friday night, the New Orleans Times-Picayune reported on the filing of a lawsuit against the Saints by former director of security Geoffrey Santini, who alleges that he resigned after G.M. Mickey Loomis tried to cover up the abuse and/or theft of Vicodin by two unnamed senior staff members.

Early Saturday afternoon, we reported that the two unnamed senior staff members are coach Sean Payton and assistant head coach/linebackers coach Joe Vitt. (The New Orleans Times-Picayune and, subsequently, the AP confirmed our report.)

So what does all this new info mean? Possible new coaching staff for the Saints this year? If so the magic from last year wouldn't transfer into this year very well. And would hurt the Saints organization tremendously.

I hope for the best for the Aints but I'm shocked by this news, I mean why in the hell would someone break the law for Vicodin? why not stronger pain medicine if your going to steal it? I just don't get it.

I never hope for the best for the aints.

sean payton is going to be fired because he borrowed hilly billy heroin to help him sleep at night.

next up, am I going to go to jail for raiding my mom's medicine cabinet every time I go to their house for dinner?

I'm sorry for Sean Payton as a human being, but I'm not sorry for the Saints - I hope this thing blows up in their face... MUHAHAHAHAHA!

It will be interesting to see how Goodell handles this IF any of it is true.

[DawgzLife]

This will be a Public Relations nightmare for them, but will not get Payton fired. I am as excited about it as anyone (from a football only standpoint), but the Saints will nt be destroyed by this, no matter how much we hope it will.
