If you are serious: I believe one of the Saints coaches (I think it was Sean Payton, but could have also been Greg Williams) said at the press conference introducing Aubrayo Franklin that "Patrick Willis must be crying in his cereal right now" or something similar to that. He was alluding to the fact that Willis said during the offseason he would really like the front office to bring back Franklin.

Well I never wish any player to get hurt, but in this case I have to admit that comment is really funny

Sean Payton is clueless , real Patrick Willis fans know that Pat likes oatmeal with peanut butter and the occasional banana for breakfast NOT cereal!

+1 for sticking it to Greg Williams.

Gotta give some love to Aubrayo though. He played some good NT for us when we were in dire need of one! It sounds like he was willing to come back, but we were the ones who chose to move on... so I wish Mr. Franklin no ill will and wish him a speedy recovery

A few weeks, might miss a couple games into regular season. And IIRC, it's a sprain, not a tear, so he should be back to play the majority of the season.

With that in mind, eff the Saints and their blitz-happy D in pre-season! They actually did us a favor by letting the OL coach know what blitz pick ups to work on and improve.

I didnt either... This is what "NoOffseason" wrote:

Even funnier after reading that!

Then ain't karma a b***h?

I can't wait until Harbaugh plans for Drew Brees, Sean Payton and the Saints. Aldon Smith, Donte Whitner and Patrick Willis on a safety blitz...as long as our corners can cover for five seconds, Brees will be a dead duck.
