I am glad we got Goodwin who is younger, but at the time I wanted either one.
Man you guys are cold, the guy played 13 seasons, this was his 14th. Sometimes the pain is too much to overcome. some people may not understand it but, I bet if you were he and actually had to walk in his shoes, you may feel different, easy to say, from the arm chair. I have read about many OL & DL by the time they hit their 40's, they cannot play and lift up their kids.
Wish the guy all the best.

Facts? In a Niner chatroom? Be serious man!
If it is HGH, watch for his "passion" to suddenly return in 2012

Man, am I glad we didn't get him in FA. Once again, Baalke makes the right choices.

Agreed. Calling the guy a coward is way out of bounds.

I don't think he's a coward - not after playing at such a high level for so many years. He lost the passion and when you don't have that is when you get really injured. Smart move although inopportune for the Saints.
