Remember Bountygate? Of course you do. But I’m not here to talk about the pain and pleasures that came along with the New Orleans Saints‘ legendary Super Bowl XLIV run in 2009. I’m here to tell you about Anthony Hargrove, one of the suspended players in 2012 after the scandal was revealed in 2010 and eventually dealt with by the NFL and Commissioner Roger Goodell following two years of investigation.
Before meeting with the Black and Gold and joining the team just in time for the world title season, Hargrove was banned for the entire 2008 season after violating the league’s substance abuse police.
