Re: Carr May Require Off-Season Surgury

Does this remind anyone else of the situation with Nick Fairley? Honestly, the Fairley contract might have cost the Saints a championship as it came at a critical window in Brees late career. It was not quite as big of a contract but it was quality starter money. Fairley had a known heart condition but Loomis did not think to get it checked out before signing Fairley to an extension with a large signing bonus after a good year on a prove-it one year deal. So the second the ink dries on Fairley's extension and he cashed out his signing bonus, he goes to his own doctors, and they say the lingering long term condition has progressed and he can never play again. Who needs the Aflac duck when you got Mickey Loomis and bottle of Jack, he'll cover ever chronic condition that other insurance won't. Its a real shame that we have a GM who is asleep at the wheel and doesn't think about anything carefully before he does it.
