SFIAH

Not saying he's walking away from the commentary gig; but he loves football; he loves the game; he loves the comradery (even though his current locker room has some toxicity toward him)...

And he's proud of his legacy here and he wants to see it flourish; he will spend time here working, teaching QBs here; have no doubt he sees what a sh*t hole New Orleans has reclaimed for itself since H. Katrina...

But he wants to be a difference maker; his ego won't allow anything less; he won't be content just talking football on Sunday/Monday nights; he will recreate the rush of NFL play in his new world...

And don't be surprised to see him dip his toe into the political foray, but I suspect that will be more toxic than he's willing to put his family through that sh*tshow and will work more in the donor world...
