"I'd never sit out the season," Brees said Tuesday. "I love the game too much."

"Have I been told that some of the statements that were supposedly released have been said by the coaches were actually statements that were actually drawn up and manufactured by the NFL and then basically put out there as their words?" Brees asked. "Yes. If that's the case, that's unfortunate. It makes them sound like they're trying to manufacture something, fabricate it or hide the truth and the facts."

Gotta admire Brees' honesty and passion, but that's a pretty big bargaining chip he just gave away. I hope the Saints reciprocate and get this thing done soon.

In other news I just took a shite. A mean smelly one. Check back between July 10 and the 16 for an update.

I stopped thinking that when he didn't sign the contract offered after saying last year that "he wasn't worried about being the highest paid QB"

I agree. I was surprised he said it and surprised he wouldn't sit out the season if he doesn't get the contract he wants.

LOL at all of the wringing of hands and knashing of teeth on here about Brees. He will play football this year and he will play for the Saints. All the rest is just posturing and positioning for negotiations by both sides. Fans should just ignore it, football is a business.
