What they're saying

As many of you know the Saints have a new quarterback... one whose shoulder is so badly damaged that he doesn't expect to be able to throw until May at the earliest. Nick Saban's Miami Dolphins were also considering signing Drew Brees but backed off and opted instead to trade for Minnesota's Daunte Culpepper. Today the conventional wisdom in Miami is that the Saints got hosed yet again. Here is the Miami Herald's Greg Cote:

Culpepper rehabbing a knee certainly is less worrisome than Drew Brees trying to get past major shoulder surgery. That concern of Miami's, coupled with Brees' demand for a $10 million guaranteed signing bonus, is why the Dolphins let Brees escape to foolish New Orleans and swung their focus quickly to Culpepper.

Send a thank-you note to the perpetually mismanaged Saints, or maybe eat a plate of crawfish jambalaya in honor of a team that can't run itself any better than its city does.
