Quit wringing your hands like a bleeding-heart liberal.

The chance of the Saints not re-signing Brees would rank 2nd behind death by meteroite.

This deal will get done; as far as Nicks/Colston staying, they are going to have to decide if they want money or another Super Bowl ring.

If they leave, I hope they go to a team that the Saints beat the hell out of and a Saints player after the game tells them they F'ed up by leaving!

Not that I'm trying to steal your thunder or anything ... just if anyone else besides me is wondering exactly what the chances of 'death by meteorite' really are and to reassure everyone Brees will be resigned by your calculations ...

"Astronomer Alan Harris has made that calculation. Allowing for the number of Earth-crossing asteroids — the kind that can hit us because their orbits around the Sun intersect ours — as well as how much damage they can do (which depends on their size), he calculated that any person’s lifetime odds of being killed by an asteroid impact are about 1 in 700,000."
