quote:
"The reason I didn’t do it this year, from a broadcasting perspective, is my family," Brees said. "You have to be gone for the weekends, and that’s what I basically did as a player. These are such valuable moments for my kids. I want to be as active and involved in their weekend activities. That doesn’t quite mesh right now with a broadcasting career."

"I’ve got so many opportunities and things I’m considering right now. Staying involved with the game of football is one of my priorities, whether it’d be broadcasting or some other capacity. I really enjoyed broadcasting games. I had a chance to broadcast Notre Dame football games last year. I only got the chance to broadcast two NFL games. I certainly would’ve loved to have more. I feel like that’s where my skillset can bring the most value, getting inside of the quarterback or play caller. The door is open - it’s something I’ll always consider."

It’s because he sucked at it. I’ll also add that he’s a cowardly bitch.

TygerDurden•22 months

What a BS response. He knew that this job would take him away every weekend. He just was not good at it.

Don’t worry they will let you broadcast from your knees.

the truth is because of his weak arse statement on listening to censored rap music. lost all street cred in that moment. i hope he was plowing a hot PR worker when he got this advice cause that reputation is scorched earth now.

Saint Alfonzo•22 months

For ten or twenty million a year, whatever they were paying him, the kids can wait. The truth is he sucked at the job.

O P Walker•22 months

I wonder if Drew and Britney still have to suck the c*cks of Malcolm Jenkins and Michael Thomas on a nightly basis? Or, does losing the television gig for which he betrayed both of his grandfathers absolve him and Britney of sucking any more c*cks?

White trash, low educated must suck for you. Brees has done more for Louisiana than any of you white trash window lickers.
