These arguments over astronomical pay checks really turn me off from the NFL. I can't really say what I would do in this situation but to ditch the city that loves you because 18mil a year is not enough is pretty lame.

Seriously, Drew wants $23 million? I don't believe it. No one else makes more than $18 million. I think he probably expects $19 and is hardballing because of frustration.
He knows he can't get $23 million and be surrounded by all those yard makers.
Tom is making $23M per year right now.
That's why I wish the stupid Saints would go to Houston. I'm sure there are people there who like wasting $100 a week to watch a sports event when they could be building AKs.

I think the issue moreso than then average/year was the salary schedule. Brees wants more of the money earlier (which is common) and Benson wants to pay him more money later (which is common). I'm not sure if they were off a whole $5MM/yr, just how the pay would be distributed.
There is no reason that Brees shouldn't get what he wants. As I stated earlier, the only thing he won't have by the end of next year is 3 super rings (Brady).
Every, and I mean EVERY, major QB record in the NFL will be owned by a New Orleans Saint! I hate to say never, but here is where I think I can get away with it.
There will NEVER be another New Orleans Saint (I am almost temtped to say NFL QB), that will eclipse this acheivment!
Fear the flower of the lilly!

I see nothing wrong with handing out bonuses for a job well done (it is there job to make those hits). The hits were all legal and no flags thrown. Any one that has ever played the game has probably gotten pats on the back or a sticker for their helmet for sending an opponent to the sidelines. Next thing you know it will be two hand touch below the waste or the NFFL.

So thats why some of the hits DID draw flags and those that didnt were fined Big Time? Please. And shame on you for cheering on and supporting someone layinh a hit aimed at ending another man's career. That's disgraceful.
Then shame on me, I must have missed something. If awards were given out for tackles that went for the knee or late hits than yeah that's wrong, but the hits I saw were all legal.

You obviously didnt watch the games then. Late hits, high low, knee and ankle targets. Sorry, but pure scum. Its one thing to end the play, its another to end (or try to end) careers. Its a game, not combat.
This crap has been blown out of proportion. There is abosolutely NO EVIDENCE to implicate they were maliciously trying to physically maim opponents.
Those of you that may never have played organized tackle football need to understand, to hit another fully equipped player (particularly another NFL monster), hurts the defenders too.
Those speaking out are saying the pots were for more aggressive tackling and more agressive scarifice of their own bodies, not intentional maiming. The media is using the word "Bounties!"

I watched the games just did not know all the details about the bonus/bounty pool payout. I was under the impression that it was paid for legal hits that resulted in the player going out for a series. That's within the game to me and how I played it (peewee - high school). Had a bounty system back then too, but the coaches handed out stickers for our helmets instead of money.
Sounds like football the way it should be played.

Mine. Not yours.
No, $72 million divided by 4 is $18 million
