Gerry V checks in with a quick fire podcast.

Got anything to say in response?

It concerns the fan responses to the Graham tag situation.

I think the "some" he is referring to are the same "surface" fans that don't really know enough about the sport to intelligently comment on things of this nature. The folks that don't bother to really understand, or get to the root of whats actually going on.

OK, he's kinda right, but he doesn't have to be so sanctimonious about it. There's a middle ground between "Graham is greedy" and "the Saints are cheap" and I'm tired of hearing the extreme viewpoints on both sides.

He basically reminds fans that football is a business and like all of us, football players seek to make as much money as they can for participating and contributing to that business. Said Graham knows that a football player's longevity is dependent on staying healthy and a football career can end in a moment with a significant injury. He chastises fans for calling Jimmy greedy like they did Brees when he was negotiating his contract.

But when a player is demanding more than he's worth, its fine with me if he gets hammered for it by the fans.

We fans love the team, and if a player demands more than we fans feel he's worth, then he hurts our team financially.

Hurt my team? Me no likey!:disgust:

When will we find out if he's classified as a WR or TE? I don't think he's greedy. I just want this over because if he's classified as a WR there is no guarantee that we have the cap to sign him. I want Jimmy on the team but this is just annoying.

I guess at least he's not holding out like Vernon Davis with 2 years left on his contract because he wants more money. That would be much more of an annoyance.
