Payton signs a 5 year contract extension

Nice to get off an extra long, make you miserable shift at work to such great news!

I never really doubted that he was going to come back, but am glad it is all final now. He's back. Fear the Reaper biatches!

All along it seemed odd to me, that apparently nobody from the NFL said boo about this terrible contract problem, for almost a year, then all of a sudden there was this HUGE problem with it and the contract was "voided," and "Payton could be going to Dallas" suddenly became a big media story... and all of this broke immediately AFTER the Cowboys lost to the Giants at home in October and were 3-4, the hometown fans actually booed Garrett and the Cowboys in Jerry's new stadium, and Jason Garrett was on the hot seat over his playcalling decisions down the stretch in that game...from the very start the timing on this was really weird if you put those two media stories together.

Sean Payton now sitting courtside with Tom Benson and Archbishop Aymond.

Reported Payton will make $7.5mm per year.

So Payton was free to negotiate as long as it wasn't with the person who's job it is to negotiate contracts. Thank Roger, way to level the field.

Glad to have Sean back. This isn't a surprise to me. Over the last few weeks I've had friends ask if I was nervous about him coming back and I told them no. We stood by him from the beginning and I always felt he wanted to come back. The whole Dallas thing was a media driven story that I never felt had any truth to. Looking forward to 2013.

He can now figure out how to stop brees from throwing ridiculous interceptions.

LOL! Xan you are relentless!

I am sure if Drew were paid a lot less his interceptions would be of the standard type. Non ridiculous in appearance.

All I have to say is "I told you so."
