Re: The Return of Jimmy Graham

Well it's after the fact now, but my answer would have been to just pretend he isn't there, and hopefully the team will send the message.

I don't hate him, nor was I afraid of him doing much today. It would have been different if it were a guy who left over a contract dispute. I'd be more inclined to rag on him, then.

That's right. Jimmy has been so far from my thoughts that I forgot about that. I guess that would have been a good enough reason to boo. I still wouldn't waste my breath, though. Not acknowledging him is a bigger slap in the face.

Even funnier was how Richard Sherman was shaking hands, chatting it up with Saints players yet Jimmy Dickens was already half way to the locker room? He couldn't wait to get off the field and into the tunnel.

Trades happen but players dont have to be happy about it. He hasn't said thing like JG so i dont blame him for not being happy

He was pissed because Payton testified against him in the TE/WR ruling. He was never the same after that and got soft. He's scared to take hits and isn't even producing any more than average.
We fleeced Seattle with that move. We have 3 pro bowl/all pro players on our line now. We are a guard away from having a killer Oline. Just what we need to keep Brees healthy at this age.

I think Jimmy went a little too much Hollywood.

Jimmy was a non-factor today.
Unger is the anchor of our revamped offensive line (that plowed some running holes in the SeaHags today BTW).

Again, steel of the century trade. All the best to Jimmy. Good luck getting anything out of him for Pete Carroll.

That last play should have gone up for JG. He likely would have died trying to get a TD. Glad RW chucked it out of the end zone though :)

Re: The Return of Jimmy Graham

He didn't ask to be traded and he played well for us. Once a Saint. Always a Saint. Bobby Hebert and Morten Anderson played for the freaking Failcons and we still love them. Roman Harper was a Painther for crying out loud and now he's wearing the black and gold again and I was tickled to get his signature on my wooden Super bowl football.

I wish Jimmy well.
