You’re assuming a lot there. To start, you’re assuming that advertising and programming today is centered to drive revenue or sell products. There is more propaganda in programming today than anything else. Considering the media across the country is controlled by less than 3% of the population.... but I digress.

As for being a minority, yes I am indeed that. I have, and my people have been a minority for hundreds if not thousands of years.

We are getting off topic a bit—

Streaming is all ad captured, the legal stream services at least. You’re right it’s contracted and I stated that, but I also read that some media companies are able to recoup lost revenue they had amounted to 2.3 billion for the year.

What has really hurt the media companies this year was the lack of fresh programming. All production shut down through the first four to five months of the pandemic. I've got some friends who are actors and their job streams completely dried up. One does quite a few major commercials and those were even cut way back. Regular primetime programming production shut down. The usual spring and summer sports schedules had all been postponed. They didn't have ad worthy programming until sports started gearing back up in late summer. There's little doubt that the NFL has accounted for a larger percentage of their overall revenues than ever before. That isn't going to go unnoticed when the next round of contracts come around.

Mark Ingram is going to get released. Do we get him back cheap and let Murray walk?

Does he have anything left in the tank? Sign a young, explosive UDFA RB or take one on the late rounds...

Murray is a luxury we can no longer afford...

Running Back years are different than most people's years. He's probably in his forties by now.

Agreed, cap wise it makes the most sense. Trade who you can trade stock up on draft choices and go from there.

We sure as hell could have used him on Sunday.

Like JP alluded to earlier, Murray is set to count 4M against the cap.

Saints need top value any way they can right now.

The New Orleans Saints’ season came to a sudden end, forcing fans and observers to shift gears towards an unpleasant offseason. There’s a long list of free agents to contend with in 2021, and that doesn’t even get into the potential salary cap casualties — that’s a problem for another time.
