It will be interesting to see if Disney/ ESPN/ ABC pressure Orange Empire Conference to re investigate their findings to prevent Disney/ ESPN/ ABC from having their image tarnished. If the coaches are paying for hits, they should have a LIFETIME ban from doing anything other then sitting quietly on the bleachers.

Not sure what Disney really has to do with it, or how they'd be "tarnished" by this. If you think that one team in one league in one part of the country will somehow tarnish Disney because they host some Pop Warner championships, I seriously doubt it. Disney could decide to ban that team, but it's up to Pop Warner and the league to decide.

And there is nothing in the articles that indicate that the teams would even go to Disney anyways.

This is only getting national press right now because of the Saints.
