In fact, he has continued to reference it and pretty much called bullshinski on what Goodell did and how he did it; he still references it, not allowing it to die... That said, I feel his article re: what's happened is timely and his analysis re: Brees and Tom Condon and their motives for leaking his willingness is dead on... Among his valid points - if Brees was so interested in signing an team-first, accommodating contract, why did he not leak that or state that publicly before free agency began... Or even last season when a left guard Clint Boling was available at a reasonable salary... And don't think it doesn't affect the locker room - Junior Galette's tweet to Josh Norman of the Jimmy John's delivery car was a veiled suggestion to some of the resentment, valid or invalid, but very real toward's the Brees/Condon contract that limited the Saints in retaining players and acquiring needed fresh troops via free agency... And for Florio, who has amassed a very credible media reputation to publish such a column, you can bet he verified there's definitely fire from this smoke... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

How much is enough till winning is the main issue? not like he has not been paid already. IMO this is were Drew's legacy will be solidified or broken with the fans of the saints. Does he have what it takes to be Tom Brady of the New Orleans? Win or lose Tom has solidified his history here in New England as not only a player on the field but at the negotiation table as well. He is loved for his unselfishness and understanding of the big picture. . This is why old timers love Archie. He proved his love the fans and the city in so many ways. If Drew wants what Archie has this is the moment of truth. |
