Exclamation Article: Brees' contract talk could get ugly

With a contract that will expire in just a few weeks and with no progress made during the 2011 season toward a new one and with a record-setting season in his pocket and with a late-game performance against the 49ers that should have been enough to deliver the first road playoff win in franchise history, quarterback Drew Brees and the Saints continue to be on a collision course for awkwardness and ugliness in 2012.

In a season-ending press conference held Tuesday, coach Sean Payton said what he’s been saying for months: Brees will be back.


Superdome Super Bowl raises stakes in Brees

"A Veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America" for an amount of "up to and including my life."

Its really sad to see, Florio is really reaching for straws here and his points make little to no sense. I thought the salary cap increased each year due to the tv contract they signed so why is it every idiot that gets paid to spew garbage with a computer keep saying that there isn't enough money to go around for all 4 of these guys. Hey Florio stick to sucking up to Dan Patrick and actually do some research before you try to write a shock and awe article

This is the biggest reach for a story I've ever seen. No matter what else happens, Brees will get a deal long term. There is no doubt in my mind that Drew Brees will retire a Saint.
