..... this is typical back-pedaling, subject changing, rhetoric of the modern day Bush fanatic. I'm certain if Reggie actually was the teams bada$$, elite player (like our teams T. Jones or Tomlinson) and played the featured role as expected... that all these "whatever" people would be constantly assuring interest in his counterparts that Reggie is the Man and you can't F--- with a good thing etc. The fact is, there is now little to no argument as to why Reggie should be the man and little argument

So, "I don't care, they both play for the same team" only sounds good, because there is no longer any valid argument for Reggie to be featured. I've seen arguments for the last 4 years in defense of Reggie and supporting the fact that he should get the majority of touches and that Pierre is a second string for a reason, and Pierre couldn't carry Reggie jock strap...etc...... well, as the roles have changed.... now, no Reggie fanatic cares, because they both play for the saints, right!

I'm not hatin' on the guy (even though I have personal issues w/him). I'm just saying he's not worth the money he's getting paid. Would I like to have him on the team? Yes....just not for that kind of money. I mean, Reggie is making more than guys like Chris Johnson & Stephen Jackson. C'mon!

I believe reggies gaining the needed strength and tenacity to bring the wood! Pierre I've always pulled for also;He reminds me of a pinball.

Reggie is overpaid which is why he is disliked by many...Come on Loomis...make us luv him...

Pete · 05-22-2010, 11:22 PM

I agree way over payed! Although I'll keep rooting for him as long as he keeps improving and trying to better the saints, and himself! He may help the saints next year by leaving if he doesn't agree to restructuring that stinkin contract.

11.8 mill. in a capped year its a major restructure or trade that would never happen or part ways. is it because of the uncapped year?

St.t thanks for clarifying amount total. I'm not understanding your question totally. Not that I could answer it but I'll try and give an opinion.

Being he gets the 8 million this year, and had recieved 2.5 mil and some change last season put him a little over 5 mil average in two years which isn't all that ridiculous in my opinion.Now the cap hit next year we would take wouldn't be worth it by no means. Do we restructure by using a extension?pete carroll will probably come to reggies financial rescue if not in my opinion.
I do believe reggie is coming around being that he's gaining the needed strength,mentality,and tenaciousness to evolve into a more efficient running back/recieving threat out of backfield/punt returner;all the while him understanding his role on our team.now the money 11.8.. ouch..
