cost us perhaps the best left guard in pro football. I know he is smart, but does he really want to spend 2012 on the
turf half the time? I never thought of him as being a person with a lot of ego, but I am no longer a Brees fan.
Why would he hold out for 23Million and cost the rest of the team so dearly? 18.5 was a 4 million dollar a year
freaking raise. And now he is franchised and like I said, he will be hit a LOT more than 2011. Dumba55.
He is everybody in NO's DARLING, but living 6 hours away from my old home town gives me a different perspective.
I can bag Brees and not feel like the whole city thinks I am crazy. You gotta eat this one, Drew.

N'awlins signed Ben Grubbs. They'll be fine. Just to give perspective, would you rather them have kept Nicks and started Chase Daniels at quarterback (who's lucky if he's as tall as Brees and not nearly as good) or go the route they're taking? Brees is one of the unquestioned three best quarterbacks in football. The question I have is, why are the Saints being chintzy with Drew Brees?
