1. What FA did the Saints miss out on bc Morstead got too much money and we couldn't afford the FA?


is this where i make up names and you say no way and i say yeah way?

but seriously, shouldn't the contracts/wasted or dead money for Byrd, Browner, Ellerbee, Gallette, Graham etc garner equal or more outrage? I mean, if you are railing against contract vs value/production...


for sure. me taking a stand against our organization having the highest paid punter in the league doesn't mean i'm ok with other wasted monies. at least i'm consistent with wanting our monies spent wisely. it aint' a huge make or break deal but at some point, our front office has said "yeah, we're going to pay top dollar for an extra yard or two on punts but we're going to half arse our way through the kicker position the past 7 years that actually put or take points off the board".

quote:

3. What's the big deal anyway? The Saints have contracts currently with 53 guys they think can win the Super Bowl with by dividing up $167 million. If they win another Lombardi trophy, does it matter if Kamara got a million, Brees got $24M, and Morstead got 3.6M?




Its a legit discussion point. I choose to partake in and actually put up concrete points unlike 90% of the people that like to counter me.

People used to bitch about Reggie's contract, in that he never put up enough stats (while being used often as a decoy) to justify his lofty pay. Yet his contributions helped others make plays. I've never had an issue with stars or solid contributors getting paid. Morstead falls into that group. His production/contribution has helped our defense.

However, when money is tied up in deadbeats, injured-bench-warmers, camp-bodies-on-active-rosters and still owing traded away players on other teams...that shite pisses me off consistently.

You can be consistent in your bitching, but it shouldn't be misguided.
