I did. I mean, obviously he does what he does for money, I'm not THAT naive.

I just hoped he would be the type that would put his team, his city, and yes, his fans above the difference between $18 MILLION and $23 MILLION dollars/year; especially when the only real difference was in guaranteed money and the end-result of the contract would have been roughly the same amount of payoff to him, total.

Now we have to go through this sh*t again next year. Assuming he survives the beating he's probably going to get after EVERY team out there sends the wolves after him in retaliation for the whole "bounty" debacle, and our O-Line doesn't have Nicks to protect him.

Drew's is the only Jersey I currently own. Not sure I'll be able to wear it for a long, long time.

Sweet Sassy Molassy, I am just so bummed out right now...

Yep.. a 5 million $ difference for the first 3 years...that was the big holdup. I am so pissed and probably going to regret saying this, I hope he gets what he deserves and if he is having flashbacks right now, good!

I will never say this
" I hope he gets what he deserves" Drew is our team. I'm just AS pissed about this as everyone else. On both sides of the table. THIS does suck.

Its ok I did! I know he is the team, which is why this piss's me off so much. The greed and the BS he has been spewing out his pie hole all because he wanted 5 mil more on the front rather the back. AND knowing he already previously turned down a contract offer that would have made him the highest paid player..he can kiss it!

Well wouldn´t be surprised if both Sean Payton and Brees leave the Saints for Dallas in the coming years. Nicks will already be waiting there!
