Told me this morning Saints and Brees are preparing to announce a 5 year deal for $115,000,000. In fairness, he heard it as an office rumor. We'll see.

what does this even mean?

I see no reason why Loomis is giving in to 23 per right now unless this is Tom stepping in.

It means a co-worker of his told him there's a rumor that a deal with those financial terms is preparing to be announced. Not sure what's hard to understand about that.

I think I know who your friend is then, because I heard the exact same rumor yesterday from someone VERY reliable.

I don't like going off rumors but please let this be true! I am ready to get things rolling in the right direction and it starts with Mr. Brees. We worked on the defense but nothing works without him. Besides they just said Peyton is the highest paid player on NFL Prime Time so I would love for them to show off Drew's contract! And honestly 23 mil is about right. Brought a terrible franchise to being one of the most marketable, yeah 23 is just about right.

the type of office leads to validity of the fricking rumor.

Tell your friend to tell his coworker that he's a fricking count bagging douche.

Totally cool with me. friend told me such a rumor was told to him. I obviously have no idea whether it's true. In fact, neither does my friend. Neither does his source. Nothing more than passing along a rumor passed on to me. Like evolution.

Sorry. One of my closest friends, someone I've known for 25 years told me this yesterday. He got it from someone we both know with legit contacts.

I did not want to post it because its 3rd hand info.

This isn't passing the simple logic test by any standard.

I bet they're waiting until Sunday to announce it......As the great Breesus helped this team rise from the dead, he will himself rise up on this glorious Easter.
