Idea for Mr. Benson re: Extending Drew Brees

Start paying Drew in shares of Saints stock or ownership of the company.
So by the time he dies and Drew retires.... Drew can be like a 25% owner (6 yrs at 20 million) and Rita can run things with a guy like Drew Brees along her side.
Win for Drew, Win for the City.

Only if the new CBA allows for that...

we'll give him a front loaded deal in 2011 when there is no cba.

I'm sure Drew would be all over that. That works out to over 30 million a year, assuming the Saints are worth in the area of 800 million dollars.
However, I think they can get him for a lot cheaper.
Besides, what if they do that and Drew still wants to play after that contract is over?

It would be a lifetime type contract, we would have his nuts in a saints jar for however long we want... I was throwing some rough numbers out there....

Yes. Fortunately for me, my job mainly consist of sitting in front of a computer and my ability to multi-task is uncanny.
Do you have any other snide remarks you'd like to get off of your retired chest?

I'm pretty sure that the CBA does not allow players to have an ownership stake in a team while active.

ownership is put in a safety deposit box until the day he retires.
