If the Saints or the Patriots situations came out 5 years down the line and no one in the organization was there when it happened, then I don't think they should be punished.

The Saints should be punished because it happened last year. It doesn't matter if Payton and Loomis are there or not. Same with the Patriots. In both of this situations the teams were caught while they were doing it.

If the Redskins get punished, then the Cowboys should be punished because Woodson was on Mike & Mike this morning and said the Cowboys did it when he was with them.

This is a ridiculous standard that actually gives incentive to a team for covering something up. Why would anyone come clean right away under your scenario? Just wait it out 5 years and then say, yeah we cheated but hardly anyone is still here so you can't punish us. That's crazy.
