You never really heard anything negative about him when he went to Buffalo in 2009, or Cincy in 2010 (both teams were losers). Also, he put up solid numbers in Cincy, showing that the ability is still there. 3. He's been out of football now for 2 full seasons. He'd probably relish the opportunity to play with a guy like Brees and the others. 4. He hasn't won a Super Bowl ring yet. The Saints, in my opinion and in the opinion of many others, are a legitimate Super Bowl threat this season. He'd have to be the dumbest person on Earth to mess that up. |

If this was the same Moss that broke records with Brady, T.O. of the early days, or the Chad that would destroy our secondary everytime we played him people would be willing to overlook it; just like Jeremy Shockey. If Chad would've been a Saint his whole career everybody on this forum would love him. If Moss and T.O. would've had a QB like Brees their whole career you wouldn't have heard any complaints from them. Ultimately, they all just want to win.

Re: I wish we would sign TO or Moss
That's cool. You can question what you want, but to pretend like every player on our team is this high character, flawless guy is delusional; and I'm not going to pretend just because its my favorite team. I was born in New Orleans. Lived in the 9th Ward. My 2 month old sleep right now under a hand made Saints blanket. But loyalty doesn't mean be blind. People keep talking about what the Saints don't bring in. We brought in Hargrove. We brought in Shockey. We had Kyle Turley. We gave Moss a tryout last year, meaning we were down to take a chance on him. Hell, I was all for the bounties being put on players. I believe we did it, and I don't care. If they were trying to break Favre's leg please do, but that's surely not the definition of class. We've had a Aderall scandal as well. We aren't perfect.

For heaven's sake. Please let this thread die! The front office isn't hearing this anyway.
