We might not have football just yet, but we’ve got a war of words that could add some hype to what’s supposed to be the season-opening game between the New Orleans Saints and the Green Bay Packers. We’ve got an icon from one franchise taking shots at an icon from another. Retired Green Bay player Jerry Kramer ripped into current New Orleans quarterback Drew Brees in this interview. "Drew Brees is stupid," Kramer said. "He's young, ignorant, has no experience and doesn't know what the hell he is talking about. Life brings a lot of different things at you, and Drew hasn't seen any of the bad ones yet. He's been fortunate, but there are a lot of different reasons out there why guys can't hold on to their money and it's not really our position to judge whether they should have held on to their money or not. They need help.’’ Brees, who is very active in the NFL Players Association, made some earlier comments about how he doesn’t feel sorry for some retired players who made bad business decisions and had to dip into their pensions early.

Did he just say that a guy who plays in New Orleans and spends A LOT of time helping that city hasn't seen bad times? Because Bree's is smart with his money and doesn't do stupid crap *coughgambleitawaycough* doesn't mean crap. Old timers who squandered their money deserve to be crap on. Screw em.
LOL! The guy .. nearly had his football career taken away by a shoulder injury. He's dealt with some adversary. Kramer should keep his mouth shut. Because Brees spoke truth..these vets want to run their mouth? STFU, please.
This, what does he know about Brees? All Brees said was he doesnt feel bad for guys who made bad business decisions, if you dont apply then why comment? oh wait, he must apply lmao
Yeah. He knows nothing, obviously. Brees didn't say ALL vets, just SOME.. that were ignorant with their money. Kramer must very well be guilty of the ignorant. I swear.
Lol.....this is an old statement that brees apologized for wording in such a way before the saints won the super bowl. the retired players are latching on to it for some reason.
The Vets didn't get paid very much, some more than others, but nothing in comparison to these days. It's pretty easy to talk when u make 10 mill a year
