FA or Brees? Reading another message board they made it sound like Brees is thinking about other teams and the Front Office is looking for other options. any news on all fronts?

No news at all, just the visits this weekend: Hawthorne, Lofton, and Bunkley

Nothing is up with Drew either, as far as I know...

WhoDat!656 03-18-2012 08:57 PM

I doubt Brees is looking at any other teams; why would he?

Brees has an Exclusive Franchise tag on him. He can't think about other teams until March of 2013. That means the only team he can play for is New Orleans or not play at all. The people posting on that other board are morons.

You need to stop wasting your time visiting "other" Saints boards.

I knew that It just seeemed from their posts that maybe the saits were seeking other options. You are right about that other board.

I've never been able to see the jewel in "The Big Lebowski" that most seem to, I think it was an OK film, but nothing great.

For example, IMO "Fargo" was a much better Coen brothers' film than TBL, but it could be that my dislike of Jeff Bridges affected the way I viewed the whole film.

You gotta come here first, next time, Dude. That way you dont have to visit Boys R Us anymore. You realize if you would have put this thread up on some places, they would blast you for not having 4 extra hours every day to read the whole internet.

I popped into a Texans board the other day to see how they were reacting to the Mario Williams move, and all I saw was them torching each other for starting a new thread, "Use the Search feature, use the search feature, sthop stharting extra threads even!" buncha homos.

Anyway, you come on in anytime, and put up whatever kinda thread you want, and talk about whatever you want, and whatever questions you feel like asking. If we dont know, someone will at least pretend to.

Both are good movies....but it's one of those I "get it" things. Kinda like Napoleon Dynamite

Because the only thing that the Saints fear more than Brees sitting out a season due to non contract.......

Is facing him on another team.

Its call "motivation". Now whether he is 'seriously" looking or just "motivational looking" is the question at hand.

You can bet Condon is shopping him off the radar. If brees does not sign a Saints contract, Condon does not get paid till he signs one somewhere.

If you think for a second manning being on the market is drawing interest from teams that would not look at another QB, imagine if a healthy Brees hit the market.

SF for example will probably lose Smith regardless because they pissed him off... Manning goes to Denver..... Look for SF to make a puch for Brees if he starts looking.

FinSaint 03-19-2012 07:26 AM

I doubt that either Brees or Condon are shopping around even off the radar, because there are some strict penalties for violating the exclusive franchise tag, and I don't think Condon would be willing to risk being banned/suspended from the NFL circles.

Only the franchise team has the right to negotiate with other teams when it comes to the playing rights of a exclusive franchise tagged player, the owner violating this rule would not be perceived kindly by the other owners.

Negotiate. That doesn't mean that they can't sit around and have a drink and discuss the "hypotheticals" Any how Im not buying that ****. Im holding out hope that Brees gets his contract. And sooner rather than later. I think after Manning signs and we plug a couple of holes in FA he will sign. Its all about seeing how much money is left and how to structure.

skymike 03-20-2012 03:00 PM

please Tom Condon, risk being banned from the NFL.
you suck! I'd like to use you for trot line bait.
