Even if Brees wanted to return, he is on the Saints retired list. The Saints would have to release his rights, hope he clears waivers and sign him as a free agent.

There are 31 teams that would sign him just to keep him off the Saints.

Man, that would be like dating your brothers ex-wife. Ewwww. Drew would simply refuse to play I'm sure, and the GM that tried to sign Drew in that scenario would be voted off the NFL island.

But remember...

...when McKenzie showed up on Monday night and and the Saints beat the poo out of Tom Brady and Patriots on National Television!?

I wouldnt hurt my feelings if we missed the playoffs and avoided getting embarrassed in the first round by a team that’s slightly less ****ty than we are.
It’s not just entertaining. Our teams from the 7-9 seasons when the defense looked like a scene from the Benny Hill show were way more entertaining than what we are putting on the field at this point. The defense was comically bad but at least our offense was fun to watch.

Mainly, we need to win our last two. The second season starts tomorrow.
