So now a person in the media is also reporting about the Brees contract rumor.

does this finally have enough legs to be true? at this point, i think its easily a done deal. seems too many people have heard it for it to be just a rumor.

heres to having brees for 5 more years

SR just caught on and seems to be getting into a frenzy over it, for what that's worth. It's also on Canal Street Chronicles...for what THAT is worth

But seriously, this seems to be heating up... Let us pray.

I wasnt being negative. I was only pointing out that on this site only around 3 people have reported hearing this RUMOR. I do venture to other sites, and still someone who says "I have a reliable source close to the orginization" does not have my vote of confidence. That is my opinion.

Of course it is.

What do you expect a rumor like "Brees for five years for $115 mil to do?"

I am as wishful/hopeful as everyone that this is true, however, I am going to....








There is no doubt in my mind that a Brees deal will get done.

It's just a question of when.

Lets assume this happens. Im going to also assume we lose Payton for the year but get Parcells.

This means Loomis will have gotten:

Colston
Grubbs
Chamberlin
Lofton
Hawthorne
Bunkley
Parcells
and locked Brees up.

could it even be argued that Loomis is the greatest GM in the NFL today?

i cant wait to drink the tears of falcon fans on this one.

So when he actually does sign for this, can we put a week or two ban on the idiots flaming everyone who reported this (AS A RUMOR)?

From Larry Holder:
quote:

@LHolderCBS: I can't believe I'm tweeting this, but there is NO Brees deal in place according to my source who has never been wrong. My god



Here is CSC dispelling the rumor.
Canal Street Chronicles

Here is Gus Kattengell responding to someone asking if the rumors were true about a Brees deal:
quote:

Gus Kattengell @Gkatt_17 @jklorlando33 we've heard that for a couple weeks, but when sources are asked it's not confirmed. Trust me when it happens the web crash



Finally, a pretty reliable SR poster:
quote:

word from a friend who works for the saints....not true.....but as stated above saints dont like to release anything until its in stone


Seems to be a lot of rumors flying, but not a lot of substance. Perhaps all this means they are getting close...
