More roster moves today from the Saints. They have signed defensive end Jeremy Geathers and waived defensive tackle Tim McGill. Man, that was quick! McGill got two practices to prove himself. Life in the NFL is not as easy and glamorous as many people think.

The NFL released its fan code of conduct for all stadiums for all 32 teams today. You can find the press release at the New Orleans Saints official website. Here is what the policy states.

FAN CODE OF CONDUCT

“The National Football League and its teams are committed to creating a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience for all fans, both in the stadium and in the parking lot. We want all fans attending our games to enjoy the experience in a responsible fashion. When attending a game, you are required to refrain from the following behaviors:

· Behavior that is unruly, disruptive, or illegal in nature

· Intoxication or other signs of alcohol impairment that results in irresponsible behavior

· Foul or abusive language or obscene gestures

· Interference with the progress of the game (including throwing objects onto the field)

· Failing to follow instructions of stadium personnel

· Verbal or physical harassment of opposing team fans

“Event patrons are responsible for their conduct as well as the conduct of their guests and/or persons occupying their seats. Stadium staff will promptly intervene to support an environment where event patrons, their guests, and other fans can enjoy the event free from the above behavior. Event patrons and guests who violate these provisions will be subject to ejection without refund and loss of ticket privileges for future games.”

Awww, they are taking all the fun out of it!

ESPN is taking on vote on the greatest Saints player of all-time. Cast your vote now!

The Sporting News has random notes from each of the 32 teams training camp. Here is what they had on the Saints.

Carl Nicks is lining up at both left guard and left tackle but has stood out at tackle. He has held his own against pass rushers Bobby McCray and Will Smith. Nicks could challenge Jamar Nesbit for the starting left guard job, but chances are he'll enter this season as a backup.

I am still laughing my butt off from asaint's story about his Cox Cable experience in Stujo4's FanPost. Genius...pure genius.

Well, Beemer does not agree

I suppose I’m over the top on the Cox thing. To all you Cox Lovers, my apologies. (Not really, I just wanted to type out “Cox Lovers”)

Archie is leading at 37%, greatest Saint of all time! Some worthy players there, but it’s really no contest, is it??

Love that Fan Code Of Conduct. I’m sure it will be revered and respected, especially at Giants Stadium, McAfee Coliseum (Oakland), and Lincoln Financial Field (Philly).
