You really went out on a limb on that one.

You also thought the relationship between Brees and Jimmy Graham meant that the Saints wouldn't trade Graham, if I remember correctly. For someone who loves to make fun of "pretend general managers", you sure like to pretend you sit in on GM talks, and pat yourself on the back for an easy prediction.

You don't remember correctly. I can't imagine I would say anything along those lines when I have always backed whatever the front office determines as the right move.

And, I am not making fun of pretend general managers. I have bought into the fact that it is entertaining for some to try to anticipate what would be the best needs for their favorite team and what moves it would take to accomplish that task. While it isn't my bag I do now support those who do enjoy the game.

BTW, welcome back. I haven't seen much of you recently.
