I'm not going to say yes or no...

BUT the man gave me THE HAPPIEST TWO moments of my Saints-loving life. His "point to the endzone salute" is worth more to me than any other gesture ever made by a Saint.

Who the F*** released Darren Sharper, so that he could LEAD the Saints to that Super Bowl victory... I can't remember. So, HE was "washed up" to some other coach and team, right?

We carry so much dead F****** weight, that I think Porter should have died an old-age natural death before we released that PORTER POSTER HERO.

If I recall correctly it was Minnesota who "let" Sharper go, but it was more about the money than Shaper not fitting into their system or them not being satisfied with his performances.

In the age of strict salary caps and free agency teams won't be able to hold on to all of their star players, and that will benefit other teams looking to add a star player to their roster (and having the cap space to do it).

How bout signing Sheldon Price in the draft. Watch the youtube videos of him at UCLA. He is going to be dangerous.

Woodson is out of work because of the $10 million he was due. If we are $20 million over the cap, well it just can't happen. I doubt he'll play for a huge salary cut.

I love Tracy but I don't see us sign him back.

Well, the last time I checked the altitude was lower in New Orleans than in Denver. Evidently, unbeknownst to him, the rarified air caused him his medical issue.

But he was hurt a lot when with the Saints before that which caused him to be demoted to a nickel CB at the end of his tenure... those problems weren't probably caused by Denver's high altitude..?

And can't you remember how bad his open field tackling was? I mean he makes Robinson look like Winfield out there.
