1An ode to Black & Gold.

An ode to Black & Gold.

Feb 5, 2019

In the land of Black & Gold, no matter what our faith, the Saints are our religion. And we believe with every fiber of our being. This is a tale of the Unbreakable Spirit of a team, its fans and its commitment to rising above adversity, and the celebration seen ’round the world.

3A defining moment in Saints history

A defining moment in Saints history

Feb 3, 2019

In all of Saints history, there have been three moments that stand out as the most definitive. The first took place Sept. 25, 2006, when during the New Orleans’ Saints first home game following Katrina, Steve Gleason blocked a punt early in the first quarter of the game. Curtis Deloatch recovered the ball in the […]

Dear Mr Goodell: Saints fans still believe

Jan 28, 2019

It’s being reported that the NFL has declined requests for a replay of the final minutes of the NFC Championship game between the Los Angeles Rams and New Orleans Saints, stating such would cost over $100 million, and would necessitate rescheduling the Super Bowl. I respectfully disagree. Presented for your consideration is a plan that’s […]

L.A. Rams: even if they win, they lose.

Jan 26, 2019

So here’s a different perspective… You know who else got cheated when the L.A. Rams Nickell Robey-Coleman committed those malicious “no-call” fouls against the New Orleans Saints‘ Tommylee Lewis? His own teammates. Now, before you dismiss that, consider this: you’ve got an entire team of players who worked hard all year long to get to where they […]

An open letter to Roger Goodell

Jan 22, 2019

Dear Mr. Goodell, Congratulations. The NFL is now the butt of many jokes, not only nationally, but internationally. The clip of the blatant and seemingly intentional helmet to helmet strike and pass interference committed by Nickell Robey-Coleman upon Tommylee Lewis during the NFC Championship game is being run, rerun and discussed on virtually every major […]

Ram’s confession, Goodell’s opportunity and Saints celebrations

Jan 21, 2019

The internet’s abuzz with outrage over NFC Championship game referees’ failure to call blatant pass interference and helmet-to-helmet penalties, ultimately costing the New Orleans Saints a shot at Super Bowl LIII. It’s not just the fans. It’s the media. Let’s consider the evidence. And explore the possibilities. The play: It’s been documented by countless photos […]

Dear Drew, Sean and all of our New Orleans Saints, That sound you hear is the collective resonance of die hards’ hearts breaking throughout the city, the state, and yes, even throughout the nation. But it’s not what you think. There’s a good possibility you’ll have a sleepless night as you replay today’s game in […]

Doing the right thing

Dec 14, 2018

“Silence becomes cowardice when occasion demands speaking out the whole truth and acting accordingly.”  ― Mahatma Gandhi Of all the gifts my parents have bestowed upon me during my life, without question, the greatest of these is this: integrity. It’s a word often tossed around without much thought about what it means—what it truly means—not […]
