Drew Brees reportedly just got paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaid! We put 40 letter A's in that "paid" because the New Orleans Saints QB just signed a new deal that'll pay him an astonishing $40 million in the first year alone. 40-motherfuckin'-million-dollars! The entire deal is for five years and will pay out $100 million with $60 million of that being guaranteed. But, who needs five years? We say play next year and then retire, son! $40 mill should be enough to keep you comfortable for the rest of your life, your kids' lives, your kids' kids' lives, and...well, you get the point. Now, can we please borrow a dollar?!
