Let’s engage in a bit of a hypothetical game here, just because it will be fun and let’s face it, there’s not much else going on right now. We can either do that or break down who has been arrested for what during their vacation and that is usually quite boring (unless some lineman got caught fondling a goat in which case you know TSHQ will be all over that). So my hypothetical...

The New Orleans Saints may be near a happy ending to a most unhappy offseason. Matt Triplett reports on NOLA.com that Drew Brees' deal with the New Orleans Saints should be done within a week.

I can't believe I'm even writing a story about this topic. Here it is, a couple of weeks before training camp opens for the New Orleans Saints, and the team still has not come to terms with franchise quarterback Drew Brees.

Amidst controversy, the Saints worst mistake this summer?
Fumbling a decision that should’ve been a Brees.
The deadline approaches. When the clock strikes midnight on July 16th, the New Orleans Saints and Drew Brees can no longer negotiate a long-term deal, dwindling the options to franchise tender, one-year deal, or bust. How did it come to this? It’s understandable enough...
