    Former NFL wide receiver Cris Carter clarified his previous comments about participating in a "bounty" system, saying Wednesday that he paid teammates to protect him rather than injure opposing players. Carter drew a line between the payments he made and the ones that New Orleans Saints players received from coaches for knocking players out of games. "We had a reward system and a protection system," Carter said Wednesday on ESPN Radio. "We would reward players for big plays, things that can help your team win. And then also, we paid guys money for protection, especially guys who couldn't protect themselves and especially offensive players." In the original interview Carter conducted with ESPN Radio on Tuesday, the former wide receiver for the Philadelphia Eagles, Minnesota Vikings and Miami Dolphins cited the payment he offered in exchange for protection against former NFL linebacker Bill Romanowski as a prime example of what he used to do. Romanowski threatened Carter before the first play of the game, Carter said, though the linebacker denied the allegation in a separate radio interview. Carter said he had no regrets about making the payments, saying they were necessary to ensure his safety.

    He's cleaned it up to sound better & playing the victim but it's still paying for revenge/injuries IMO.

    Believably unbelievable...
