Jeff Duncan on Sean Payton 2023
Above is my hope, albeit hopeful....it is a possibility....
I once bought a 1972 Olds Cutlass Supreme that needed a lot of work to restore it back to shape. I ended up fixing or rebuilding most everything on that car and it made me feel so proud when I finished it off by installing a new gold vinyl top & slick black paint job! It looked as great as it ran! Everyone that saw it admired the work that I put into it.
Some time passed and someone offered me more money for it than it was worth, and so I took it. About 5 years later I saw that car at a grocery store parking lot and it was totally dogged out… no longer the jewel that it once was. My first thought was,
“How could he DO this?!?!?!” But my next thought was to wonder if I should try to buy it back from the guy and put it back in shape once again.
I’m hoping that Sean has a bit of that ‘car restoration’ mentality and wants to fix up his gem of a team and proudly parade it around the NFL postseasons the way he once did.
Sad to say, I never bought back that car, and I’m sure it eventually was just run into the ground. I wonder if Payton will allow the same thing to happen?
:sad:
