| Coming on now. Reply Back to Top |
| WWL doing a lot of Brees tease - hope they don't hold him over for yet another commercial break. Reply Back to Top |
| Drew sounds exasperated with the lack of a deal and lack of communication. He says he's reached out at times and there was a lack of response. When asked what was the holdup was, he used the word "number" as in he has a number in mind for what he wants. He also said ESPN doesn't know shite He said there seems to be no sense of urgency by the Saints. This post was edited on 5/16 at 5:36 pm Reply Back to Top |
| Yeah. He aint happy I wish there was someone better asking the questions... Reply Back to Top |
| This is not making me hopeful. At all. Reply Back to Top |
| He seems as shocked that he doesnt have a contract as we are Reply Back to Top |
quote: Not to say that he is happy, but you've gotta realize that he knows that fans are on pins and needles wanting him to sign, so it's in his interest to sound down to instill some worry and put more pressure on the organization. Reply Back to Top |
| He shouldn't have done this interview. No good is coming of this and it'll just cause fans to get even more concerned. But maybe that's what he wants. IDK Reply Back to Top |
quote:True But its ridiculous that it would even come to that. This deal should've been done AT LEAST a year ago Reply Back to Top |
Posted by plawmac on 5/16 at 5:40 pm to purplepylon Classic negotiation strategy - he's putting pressure on the org. to sign him now. Claims that the bounty bs has been a distraction so its imp that the team is all together now. Frankly, I hope this interview is what causes these talks to heat up. Reply Back to Top |
| Drew doesn't say anything he doesn't mean to say. Reply Back to Top |
| He seems very down & depressed with the Saints organization. Almost like he is ready to throw in the towel and move on to other grounds. This isn't going to end well for Tom Benson. Benson risks alienating FA in the future for both the Hornets & the Saints if this continues. Reply Back to Top |
| He sounds pissed off. Reply Back to Top |
| Im am now officially concerned Reply Back to Top |
| Really pissed off and upset. Almost to the point where he wants out of the organization. Reply Back to Top |
| He's already stating that he'll be ready even if he will misses OTA's, TC, etc This post was edited on 5/16 at 5:45 pm Reply Back to Top Refresh |
