On Sunday, Saints coach Sean Payton tweeted a photo of Tom Brady's likeness hanging from the lighthouse outside Gillette Stadium.

Before there was Deflategate, which ended with Brady serving a four-game suspension to begin the 2016 season, there was Bountygate, which ended with Payton serving a season-long suspension back in 2012. And in case there's any confusion, Payton's tweet has everything to do with the solidarity he feels with Brady in light of the perceived unjust punishment levied by the league.
