You think it's weak that I used google to find an article I previously read? Interesting... Would it have pleased you more if I had searched nfl.com?
In fact it was the first thing that popped up when I googled Brees under news.
If you spend time in saints messages boards you will see its split on people and how they feel about his greed.
(1) Yes, it's weak: if you have evidence, simply provide links when you make your assertion (which is exactly what you chastise morningwood for in #9 above).
(2) Understand your search tools: This video nicely explains how and why your Google search results will not be the same as those for others. Don't ask people whether they're familiar with Google when you're obviously not familiar with it yourself.
(3) The fact that you had to use a search tool in order to locate an article suggesting that Brees' image is hurting suggests that his image isn't taking the widespread hit you seem to think it is.
(4) The article you retrieved does not even support your original assertion. As I pointed out above, it contains two anonymous comments on the NFLPA's willingness to defend Brees. (Note, these comments were probably anonymous because nobody really wants to take shots at Brees publicly.)
(5) I don't think message boards are an intelligent place to assess the general feelings of an entire fanbase: You're only looking at the comments of a few dedicated followers and message boards always attract a few nuts. Speaking of which...
What is your problem with Drew Brees?
