The continued overreactions by fan base and media is embarrassing

In my case, based on the information we know about who the Saints wanted to interview, and the various other reports from sources have sited. I can make an educated guess that the Saints where likely very interested in Glenn, Johnson and Vrabel.
Your sources reported mostly speculation and very little factual information. Your sources also only have a sliver of the facts, because they are not in the hiring committees meetings and the hiring committee is not telling anyone else what they are thinking and who they are favoring.

Of course there will always be fans, I include myself, that jump to wild baseless speculation from time to time. But that's kind of the point of SSF...
That's what a lot of people do here, but I don't think it's the point of this board. It's allowed to be part of it, but I don't think it's the point of it.

...we all like to pretend we know who to run the Saints better then the people hired to do it.
Not me, brother. I don't do that and I'm not the only one who doesn't.
