He wanted to stay, he found out he was traded via Twitter - face it, whatever happened, maybe it was an accident, or a slip-up, but if that's true, then that aspect of it was handled VERY poorly by the Saints organization. His wife going off on a rant was kind of comical, but still....team could have handled it better.

Now he has earned NFC Special Teams Player of the Week and NFC Offensive Player of the Week awards this year, the first player in league history to do so in the same season. OK, which current Saints player on the roster has done anything CLOSE to that, this year? Just name one, I'm waiting!

Until things change, I think some Saints fans just need to chill out, look at their own team's predicament, and get used to being on the dumping end of the bucket with stuff like this. I can't believe all the hate and putdowns directed at Sproles, here and elsewhere, when it WAS the Saints front office who screwed up that situation.

Between Sproles, Jenkins, Harper, & De La Punte, it seems like some Saints players have left the Saints, and they seem to be doing pretty well at their new destinations. Meanwhile, some guys, like Brodrick Bunkley & Pierre Thomas for example, took a pay cut and stayed, and are doing pretty miserable.

We've apparently got a team and a locker room that's literally falling apart. Factions in the locker room, rumors that veteran guys are unhappy, we have big money stars acting like big shots and underperforming, we have players throwing temper tantrums on the sidelines, a hopelessly confused defense of 2nd string nobodies, and idiotic fake punts. GOOD GRIEF.

Judging from how harshly some Saints fans are jumping on Sproles, it looks like he hit a nerve!
