I've never thought this in the past but Lester must be trolling.




yea like I was trolling 6 years ago when I was telling all of you how big of a fraud Mickey Loomis was? Oh yea, how'd that turn out? Cause like 99% of this board told me i was an idiot.

My opinion may be different then yours but dont insult me by saying that i am trolling. Trolling is something young kids do and is a complete waste of time

So you mean after we won a Super Bowl and had a historic 2011 season?

Yea, the bad draft classes had already started to stack up at that point.

The #Saints contract with DT Nick Fairley is 4 years, worth almost $30M, source said.

Not even 8 per, that's great. Most expected 10mil+.

Averages out to about 7.5ish per year (which doesn't mean much).

Need to see the guarantees but I'm really happy with that. I honestly expected 10 per year

that's a pretty low risk deal for someone like Fairley. Certainly not "big money" like everyone was reporting.

He wanted $9 mil. Got $7.5 mil. Not sure what the frick people thought big money meant in this case. He was close to his overly high asking price, and likely took slightly less because Saints.
