Saints QB Drew Brees is having a ball with his kids and a zip line on the 4th of July weekend.

The Saints might not be having the most success on the field in these recent years, but quarterback Drew Brees is certainly finding success off the field. The new winner of the best dad of the year award tweeted out a picture of himself using a homemade zipline to cannonball into his son’s pool.

Making a homemade zip line into a kid’s pool is the incredibly American. It would have been the most American picture of all time if it included hot dogs and Crying Jordan photoshopped onto Brees’s face we could give it the Bald Eagle stamp of approval.

Brees was never supposed to make it big with the Saints. He had what is normally career ending back surgery after a season with the San Diego Chargers. His 10 years with the Saints have culminated in a Super Bowl victory, two NFL offensive player of the year awards, an NFL MVP award, and an MVP of the Super Bowl he played in.

The Saints will be hard pressed to win their division with the reigning MVP, Cam Newton, still in the division. If Drew Brees is going to find success on the field again, he’ll need some help around him. With this picture of him ziplining into a kiddie pool, I’d say that he’s already winning in the off the field life.
