Obviously this would be the least of their punishments due to "Bounty-gate", (if the NFL ever had the balls to strip a Super Bowl from a city) but how would you make an example of the Saints?

Hell no. You don't punish a city, especially a city that's been thru what NO went thru, for it's coaches/ players actions.

They'll never let it go. 100 years from now, the card will still be dealt.

What about the earthquake that destroyed SF in the early 1900s? Why can't we play that card?

Fine I'll give you a more logical reason. I'm sure that the NFL loves lawsuits.

Take Brees away from them, and send him to play in arena league for 5 years. Seems fair.

Yep, punish the city for the idiot coaches. Greg Williams needs to be banned from football for a few years. The guy is a scumbag. It was great to beat his butt in the playoffs. He's a real POS.
