I lost some respect for Brees when he held out and went big on the money grab at the expense of the team. It doesn't give with his faith. All the commercial money alone should be several lifetimes wages.
Brees didn't hold out for the contract, he held out for the Franchise Tag clarification.

I cant fault a man for living up to his duty as a member of the NFLPA executive committee and the player rep for the Saints, making sure that the QBs after him had a clear path on FT comp; and I certainly can not fault a man for doing everything he can to ensure that his family is taken care of. Drew Brees's family is not just him, its his children, future Grandchildren etc...

What I would question is any person that would put his company before his family and turn down an opportunity to set his family up for generations.

Absolutely. I couldn't have said it better.
