The Dude

Brees was an elite quarterback when he was behind arguably the best interior offensive line in history. Since then he has just been above average. Let him play out his contract and move on.

Players like Breese are not "greedy" because they want to be paid what they are worth. Would you take a pay cut to stay at your job? Why should these guys be held to a different standard? It is a business, a job, and their livelihood. They take risks being out there every down.

Players have bills and budgets based on their salary just like we do. Its highly likely that they can go from having income to having no income at all in a days notice. They take risks just like the rest of us. People think that just because someone is rich that they don't have to worry about money. Its simply not the case.
