That is way too stiff a penalty for something that I am sure has been going on since the NFL was founded.

Agreed, but once it came out it's a black eye against the league and we all know how much they frown upon that. So now they have to go overboard on the punishment.

If this was horse racing, Payton would only be suspended for games in Louisana and he would be able to appeal, have the suspension stayed for a year, then reduced to 30 days in April 2014.
