Short, But Good Brees Story

From Peter King's MMQB:

Factoid of the Week That May Interest Only Me

You want to know why the Saints love Brees so much?
The clue is in the commercial that aired at halftime of the Sunday night Ravens-Steelers game on NBC -- the one with Brees throwing a pass to President Barack Obama as part of the NFL's "Play 60'' initiative, which urges kids to exercise or play outside for 60 minutes a day.

On Nov. 2, the Saints played a Monday-night game at home, beating Atlanta. After the game, Brees went home; he fell asleep well past midnight. At 7 a.m., he was on a commercial flight to Washington. He spent almost five hours at the White House taping the ad with Obama, Troy Polamalu and some kids. Then he was on a plane back to New Orleans. At 6 p.m., 20 hours after walking off the field following the win over Atlanta, Brees was back at the Saints' suburban practice facility in Metairie, La., watching video of the Carolina Panthers, the next week's opponent.

And you wonder why Sean Payton wouldn't trade Brees for Manning or Brady.
