Description
Of Bread and Circuses: The Story of Bountygate and the 2012 New Orleans Saints (OBAC) chronicles the New Orleans Saints' 2012 calendar year, and examines the events of Bountygate in detail.
From a crushing January 2012 playoff loss in San Francisco to Sean Payton's reinstatement a year later, the Saints weaved their way through one of the strangest years in the history of professional sports.
OBAC revisits the happenings of the Saints' 2012 calendar year; traces the roots of Bountygate; analyzes the saga's many distortions and misconceptions; offers a wider context for the events in question; and theorizes on the scandal's legacy.
Customer Reviews
Great Read!
This is a factual and compelling account of the bounty gate scandal and its impact on the Saints 2012-13 Season. More than that, it's an indictment of the corruption that has become so prevalent in the NFL. I highly recommend this book to anyone with an interest in the saints, football, or the NFL as an institution.
