YES !

We are starving for some good news. Precidents have been set already yes the money is ridiculous but other quarterbacks are getting the money already that aren't as good (EX: Vick) so get the deal done. No matter what the suspensions are we cannot build a new team in one year anyway. I say let the union fight them till the end and we will see what happens. Think they have done a pretty good job of shoring up already.

It’s amazing how stupid the media is. Drew Brees is absolutely the best

QB the Saints have ever had and I think in the end there’s a good chance

he’ll end up in the top 3 or 5 of all time greatest,BUT to say that he is the

best thing going for the Saints is downright ignorant! The best thing about

Drew Brees isn’t his accuracy or his ability to read a defense so well but

rather his distinct team player skills,which is something you rarely see in

such a narcissistic league. The best thing going for the Saints is their

altruistic resolve. I’m starting to wish we could go back to when the

media never mentioned us.

Ill argue that he is the "best thing" but not the "Only Thing".....

If he is a 10, there are a handful of 9's on the team also.

Considering our present situation, different man holding the clipboard... It is of the utmost importance that Drew's presence and leadership is seen and felt on the field.

The thought of starting a 2012 season, with a different coach, no assistant, and Brees not under center is probably the most unsettling think that I could think of.

Well.... except for Crazy Rita owning and running the team unchecked.

But if they don't that means we're not winning. The drama is always publicized when you're good. I'd rather have ESPN crap on us all day if it means we're still winning. Screw the media. My team is MY TEAM and no one can make me waiver from my loyalty to this franchise. Especially not some talking heads that don't know what really goes on in that lockeroom but are so quick to judge.

If he was as great a guy as everybody here tries to make him out to be, he would be out their with the team right now.

Personally, I could give a crap whether he comes back or not. We gave him an opportunity to restore his career...and made a pretty big gamble, IMO...and this is how he repays us. We made him great and we can make someone else great, too...and still have cap space to sign other important cogs to the machine. Unlike everyone else, I think it takes 11 to make a great offense, not just 1.
