I don't care about Graham.

I just can't forgive my team for letting Sproles go.

Who is on your unforgiven list?

Glover
Andersen
Mills

The thing about Sproles was that, if you buy into the argument that he was brought in to be our versatile "Reggie Bush" type replacement back, after Reggie left....well, in three years we never made it to the promised land with Sproles, and we DID make it to the promised land earlier with Reggie, so therefore....I use the same type of logic with Graham. Everyone makes him out to be this monster player, and Drew depended on him...he is really really good of course, I'm not saying he isn't a real talent. But he had five years here to get a ring, and we kept coming up short or not getting it done....when a championship is obviously the ceiling of this team, after a while of not getting it done, it's time to move on.

Andersen leaving always bothered me, and the twice yearly reminder didn't help.
I started loving the Saints because of Manning. He was just above average for years, but when he left was only 2 years since he was in the Pro Bowl, and it's not like we had anybody better. (Stabler, Wilson, Todd).
Looking at this year's purge, PT for sure

Good Thread, fun topic, Maggie.

Looking at this year's purge, PT for sure I cant help but wonder, what would have happened if Bum would have kept Manning, instead of Stabler, and we had those great defenses he always had.

I still want Rickey Jackson back.

I almost put Rickey, but his post-career persona made me rethink it, as well as the fact that he only played in SF for 1, maybe 2 seasons?

Rickey and George Rogers... that was a nice draft. Also got Hokie and Hoby, and R. Gary, all serviceable players
