Getting quarterback Drew Brees signed would please the Who Dat Nation

Now we have Brees going public for the first time.

He called the delay "extremely frustrating."

"I didn't think the negotiating should have been this difficult," Brees said. ''But here we are. I'd like to think this is certainly a priority."

Here's what we know.

When the Saints stepped in and rolled the dice on a quarterback coming back from a major injury to his throwing shoulder, they did Brees, you might say, the biggest favor of his career.

And what did Brees do in return?

He handed Benson, the Saints and Coach Sean Payton the biggest bargain in the history of the franchise.

How much would you say the six-year, $60 million contract Brees signed in 2006 was worth to the Saints?

Maybe $20 million in added revenue and exposure?

Think again.
