New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees has proved that he deserves to be the best-paid athlete in the NFL

He will get his money - No one is worth the money he will get (OR that other players get) but he will get it.

I do believe you are right...I just am not sure if he will get it as a member of the NO Saints. If you are Mickey Loomis, you have to be able to see what is happening in Dallas. I don't know how much more JJ can take. I know he doesn't like being shown on national TV in the 1st half smoking and joking and then the look of death at the end of the 4th quarter.

My fear is that NO will not come close to paying Drew what JJ will pay him and Drew knows this.

I suppose they have the franchise tag that they could put on him, but I'm pretty sure that Drew was fighting that very thing just before they resolved the CBA thing.

I'm just thinking out-loud, here, but the chips are falling in a way that could set-up something like this happening...and God forbid if they should persuade Sean to come over and work for the team that is in the same town that his house is in...the team that he has in his contract that he could break his contract for.

Personally, I was hoping that Tony would take the Cowboys to the NFCCG only to lose to the Saints. That would make JJ look pretty silly if he cleaned-house after a year like that...but so far it ain't happening like that.
