Nabors later posted the following tweet explaining that the context of the quote had nothing to do with any possibility of leaving the Saints for another team. It had to do with his own career. To further place this all in context, the interview was immediately following the final game of the season against the Falcons. Brees subsequently expressed and stressed his desire to play with the Saints well into his forties. Do you ever research anything before you post it as fact? ![]() |

Manning also went to a year to year mode over the last few years of his contract. And before you say that, "Yeah! And Manning left Indy!," don't forget he was released after his injury AND his absolute replacement was in place. He didn't choose to leave.![]()
I can handle reality. Reality is an understanding of the present environment. It is you, my friend, that cannot recognize reality because you are so absorbed in your personal agenda. |

He's a fan who constantly wears the b&G glasses and drinks the cool laid and probably would be among better company at SR where every player is an all pro and Brees will play till he's 50 but he's a fan. I honestly don't think he actually believes half the stuff he says anyway. He just likes the controversy. We miss playoffs and Brees is gone. I would put money on it. Another losing season Payton should go too but I doubt that will happen till Benson croaks. Either way fans should expect more than just a winning season this year. |
