[QUOTE="jaybadger82, post: 451470, member: 6211"] Least magnanimous response to a playful jab ever, ivo. Plus, you used it to dodge the point: I asked you a question, which you still haven't answered, "What's your problem with Brees?" -It's not like you're negotiating with him. If anything, you should be happy to see him eat up plenty of the Saints cap space since you root for another team. The whole "Brees is greedy" and "Brees is tarnishing his image" line of comments seem driven by animosity for the guy that is out-of-step with any sort of objective evaluation of his character. Weird to hear someone go so far out of their way to dump on a good human being and it seems like the NFL has plenty of more flawed characters to launch a campaign against. Drawing broad conclusions about an athlete's character on the basis of [I]a rumor concerning his contract negotiations[/I], as you seem to have done here, is particularly obnoxious because: (1) The rumor was probably leaked in order to rebut NFLPA suggestions that that the Saints weren't negotiating in good faith. No reason to magnify this into some type of condemnation of Brees' character unless you're a tool for the Saints or the NFL. I don't think you're a complete tool. (2) It's an embarrassment to Packer fans everywhere when one of our own conducts wholesale character assassination on the basis of such a vague rumor. As has been explained numerous times above, there's no way for anyone to evaluate the quality of the Saints' offer without reviewing the entire contract. Makes a poor foundation upon which to draw conclusions about a person's character. The best part is that disgruntled Saints fans might come back around here calling Aaron Rodgers greedy or suggesting that Clay Matthews has tarnished his image the first time their contract negotiations hit a bump. Get a clue. [/QUOTE]
