Football's a different business of course, but I think that was far from appropriate.

Outside of the 'how you like me now' thing, which I saw as more of a celebratory deal after a pretty big win, how has he perpetuated anything negative about his contract during the season?

I know you want to find anything possible to check away in the negative column right now, but I really think you're reaching by trying to say he's been a distraction with the contract stuff. Big time reaching.

He freely engaged and was willing to talk about it during the season. And the media discussed it at least on a weekly basis. It appeared to be distraction to him and to the team. That shouldn't happen.

Well yeah, of course the media is going to ask about it constantly and he gave pretty canned and mundane responses.

Did he ever say anything inflammatory or controversial? I'm really struggling to see this angle at all.

Oh even- just the "How you like me know?" was bad enough. But he should have just not talked about it. Just STFU already.

I don't remember any other QB on any team where this was a constant discussion point during the season.

What did he ever say that was so egregious?? I'm still waiting for some proof of how he's such a money grubbing selfish jerk. You're making it seem like he called a weekly press conference to just talk about his contract.

He's only the 2nd QB to play on the franchise tag (Brees 2005), so yeah maybe that's why it's been a topic of discussion.

Did you see the way he tussled McCloughan's hair? So disrespectful, cut him immediately.

I know whenever I'm ticked at someone the first thing I do is mess up their hair. And he also had the nerve to shake his hand and give him a hug. What an a-hole.

Egregious?!? Money grubbing selfish jerk?!?

Where are you getting these words from?!? Not from me...

He should've just left everything behind closed doors. No comment. Never positive when talked about in the open.

I guess I just can't figure out where you're coming from with this contract thing. You're saying he was in the wrong for talking about it (when asked), the only thing I heard from him this year was things like it's out of my hands for now, we'll deal with it when the time comes, etc. I.E. he never said anything controversial or out of line. So again I just don't see what the big deal is.
