Was the Saints' Front Office (e.g., Loomis) Fleeced on the Sean Payton Trade?

This is where I disagree. I don't think Payton was sitting out another year or 2.

It is what it is now.
I know he wanted to coach. I wish I knew all of the information because it goes way beyond him just being burnt out because if that was the case he would have sat out much longer than he did.

I agree it is what is now. I like the fact that he is doing well in Denver I don't think we have seen the last of him.
