re: for Saints fans...

I’m not insinuating shite.

I’m saying that where you are often dictates your goals and what you view as success.

If I made a year of drew Brees salary I’d probably call it a win. If I made that money year after year through hard work and destroying my body I’d probably reevaluate my goals from paying off the mortgage on my 1986 double wide and start imagining some generational wealth coupled with some projects that benefitted humanity in some ways I thought were worth pursuing.

Imagine the best job you ever had and imagine fricking it up.

I’m not saying you or I wouldn’t but I can understand the trepidation.

I’ve fricked up great gigs for way less than a moral stance. I’d like to say I’d have done differently but I definitely understand.

I concede he could have done it better. By a damn mile

Edit: a big part of this is killing heroes.

It’s important to keep in your mind that you are a hero to somebody. Your people are watching and you are going to be pressed hard. Do the right thing in your heart.

In my heart the right thing has never had a dollar amount attached to it. So there’s that.

Also I resent the guy posting behind me who says we are all broke dick average Joe’s. I’m not especially great at anything but I am anything but average and my penis works fine.
