Former Saints OL Carl Nicks didn’t feel love, respect from New Orleans

lee909 · 10-19-2012, 05:58 AM

A former Saint who is trying to appease his new teammates and fans.
It's a Shane we couldn't keep him but that is life with a salary cap in force.
I'd rather he was still here but it was him or Colston(Brees was never going) and Loomis got it right.

Nothing to see here.

The Saints had one of the smallest budgets on the market this year and had to re-sign several key players, including Drew freaking Brees, yet still offered Nicks an extremely respectable deal... And he thinks they "let" him go? I already thought of him as a traitor, but now he's gone full blown cry baby.

I hope we knock him backwards all day and blow his team away.

I hope so too, I just don't know who on the DL can do it!

lol. I'm not sure who's gonna do that either, but I still hope it happens. In the second half of that Chargers game we started to get a really good push up front. I'm counting on that to continue.

Nicks = drama queen

I've got no hard feelings for Nicks he was a real bad@$$ for the Saints, but it's hard to feel sorry for a guy getting paid $9.5 million per year.

He's even got his own street in Tampa:
