Don't underestimate the divisions this will cause. The locker room will not be the same, and everyone is going to look around wondering who will leak everything said inside it just to get in with ESPN for a gig after retirement. There will not be the joking and laughter of before... this year the locker room will not be a fun place. As such, don't expect people to stay late or come early.

And with Drew getting the runaround on his contract, don't look for him to somehow rise above what will clearly be a quagmire lain at his feet.

I think you are wrong my friend.

The media has already had its circus and the rest will be anticlimactic. From what I am hearing from the players, the "locker room" has never been stronger and this is likely to bring them further together as them against the world.

Wait and see. Good news will be coming out for the Saints today.
