Which is why I hate it when Drew sometimes talks about how coming to the Saints was some kind of calling, a chance to do something special bull shite. He came to the Saints because they were the ONLY team that offered him a contract.
You obviously didn't read his book. He explains this, and quite extensively.
His first choice was Miami, but Saban wouldn't be straight with him on whether or not he wanted him there. Hell, he tells a story about how he and Brittany's visit to NOLA could not have gone worse, (getting lost, having to drive thru the still devastated areas.) Payton and Loomis were all in about wanting him there. He specifically said after seeing the city, they both felt like there was a reason that the events happened as they did and he was all in. He has been ever since.
Take your BS somewhere else. Out of all the Saints on the roster, you cannot say shite about Drew Brees' commitment to this city.
