Re: Saints safety Marcus Maye charged with aggravated assault with firearm, denies allegations
I feel we have a lot of depth in our front office and so that puts us in a great position to trade Mickey Loomis for a 5th round pick and make Jeff Ireland or whoever the next man up. I did register firemickeyloomis.com awhile back just for fun.

Humans will be humans, but more accountabilities may help. That said, I am accountable to myself and own up. If I am wrong, I am wrong. I don't think for a moment my job would tolerate me embarrassing them. There should be consequences for every action. Obviously, we have to wait and see, maybe Maye can prove it wasn't his SUV, or he was in another state etc... |
Don't want em to get your goat don't show em where it's hid.

Re: Saints safety Marcus Maye charged with aggravated assault with firearm, denies allegations
Great quote. It is true that Loomis should take more responsibility for bringing all these problematic players onto the team. Especially considering he traded up for both CGJ and Kamara in the draft, as well as Penning who started off his career by fighting teammates in practice too. I guess technically we didnt trade up for Penning but basically we did because he was our second first round pick and we traded up to get two first round picks. And then Maye was his #1 offseason acquisition even knowing the extreme DUI accident. By shipping off CDJ for cheap and still continuing his ways of acquiring and trading up for more of these players and taking no blame for himself, Loomis is effectively blaming someone else, saying CDJ was the problem and now its solved and everything is great and depth is amazing when its not. Loomis is a failure blaming others not taking responsibility when his management is the common link. For all the players with character issues we have, there might be a few more class acts if we had stood pat or traded back in the draft and had extra selections, not traded up for all these players with character issues.

Re: Saints safety Marcus Maye charged with aggravated assault with firearm, denies allegations
Sorry Bako you have the 1 world view whenever something occurs, it’s Loomis or Front Office issue. Just does not bring anything to the discussion from my perspective so enjoyed and rant away I will no longer see your post.

Somewhere Between bako’s pessimism and Guido’s optimism lies the truth.
