Neat story... Guy wants to win bad enough that he's pulling money out of his own bank account to ensure his team is ready to go once the NFL lifts the lockout. If the story is true, I can't help but cheer for the guy.

Wonder if AK would be willing to do the same for the Jazz this fall...

That's amazing. I'm a fan.

Here's another good article about it.

Brees designed the program to mirror the Saints' regular offseason conditioning program and organized team activities. Other than the no-contact policy, the workouts are almost identical.

"We have everything here that we would have at our training facility with the Saints," Brees said.

And even some extras. Brees' wife, Brittany, he joked, is serving as the de facto "team mom" and bringing "the guys Capri Suns and cookies after workouts."

Per usual, Brees left no stone unturned. He asked his longtime personal trainer Todd Durkin to fly in from California and oversee the conditioning program. He arranged for the Tulane Institute of Sports Medicine to provide insurance to the players who needed it. He coordinated with Dickson to make Tulane's video room available for study sessions.

LOL.

AK doesn't train or practice. That's why he still has yet to develop an offensive move.

Brees is the man.

All for nothing. Saints won't even make the playoffs this year, if there is a year.
