So we could not keep Demario's replacement on the team? Isn't Demario like 75 years old?

35. Missed one game in his entire career and still recognized as one of the top five LB's in the entire league. Team captain and inspirational leader of the team. Baun likely knew he wouldn't have a chance to replace Davis anytime soon.

so the saints elected to let baun go in 2022; because of a calf injury (?) and keep an older player, davis, at a higher pay grade? but baun has a MUCH better stat record today?!!! wow. on the flipside, we keep an injured player on the team (#13), with no output for several years at a high pay scale. LMAO :beatnik:

Anyone know if Guido has quit on the team again. Noticed he is no where to be found

Good enough for the Pro Bowl. Just not good enough for the Saints Front Office?

Baller.

Always liked Baun but was criminally underutilized.

Poor coaching with no vision in NOLA.

More salt in the wounds. The fact that he acknowledges (passively) that we can't keep talent because of his salary cap malfeasance burns my bacon.

The more Loomis talks, the more I despise what he's done and continues to do!
