Default OT: Saints HC Sean Payton & LB coach accused of stealing team's painkillers (merged)

2 staff members of the champions named in the theft of Vicodin from the team's medical cabinet - both Peyton and LB Coach Joe Vitt are charged in the investigation.

There is always someone waiting to capitalize controversy on a championship team...sometimes from within.

I knew this would break big

My position is not complicated on this matter. Benson,loomis,SP and the Saints organization have devoted more than any team, I know of, in the history of the NFL to helping its people and supporting a rebuild on their free time. They have commited and proved they are true in my mind.

I do not know Mr. Santini or any time I have heard his name to help the city in his off time.

I will believe in the Saints good character because they have proven it to me, with deeds,and not talk. I dont care that they won the Super Bowl. Every day Brees,Sp,Benson,Loomis, and the Saints preached to help the community and they delivered from 2006-Now. They have put millions into our communities and built along side us as friends.

My position is not complicated. They were there for me, and us, as New England was when we ready need help, now Im there for them.

I dont care what the accusations are, they must be proven in a court of law, and until that happens, I support the Saints because when we really needed them, they were there as you were.

Only facts I know is loomis told Mr. Santini after seeing the tape " this is not a criminal matter"

Even if it were true, personally I wouldn't care. I would think the 2 coaches were stupid for not just getting a prescription, but I wouldn't care.

The big question here is if Benson was told about this or did Loomis keep this under the table - Otherwise Loomis is just as guilty if these allegations are true.

I know after he was fired, and I use that loosely , he was let go. He was blacklisted from the NFL and could not get another job. I dont know this guy so he might right or wrong , but I think you know my stand on the subject. That why we live in America, the courts need to decide.

What really is troubling for me here is this Santini guy does a blackmail threat which is against the law, but looks like a good guy by turning his former employees in for alleged wrongdoing...this country is screwed up sometimes.

Bensel released a statement Friday, after the lawsuit became public knowledge.

"A former employee who resigned just before the 2009 regular season threatened to go public with these unfounded charges unless we agreed to pay him an exorbitant sum of money," Bensel said. "We refused, and now he has gone public. We will aggressively defend these false allegations in court."
Accused him of blackmail. They pretty much need to pursue that.
