This brilliant picture comes courtesy of MtnExile. He sent it to me before the Super Bowl but didn't have time to put it up. Now that the Saints are the champions, I think it makes it even better. He spent a lot of time on this, I'm sure, so show him some love. Extra points if you can find my face.

Ricky Jackson in there?
Did I miss it or did this blog completely omit writing anything about Rickey Jackson…he only got inducted into the freaking HALL OF FAME.
You missed something
it was covered in the FanPosts and FanShots. I didn’t put anything on the front page because…well…I was GOING TO THE FREAKING SUPER BOWL

I hope to god your being sarcastic
this is probably the most personally insulting comment I’ve ever read on my blog.
Sorry to all the other CSC members for giving you in-depth, first-hand Super Bowl coverage. I should have nixed all of it and just covered Rickey Jacksons enshrinement into the HoF instead.

Don't let that clown get you down.
Dave, you do awesome work. That dude can just shove it for all I care. If he missed my post about Rickey that’s his own damn fault. Refer him to the search bar up top, or the list of past fanposts.
Snap, place, kick! And it's good! It's good! It's goo-hoo-hood! Pigs have flown! Hell Has frozen over! The Saints are going to the Superbowl!

Geez! Give him time!
He and most everyone else is still hungover from the Super Bowl win. I also love the fact that Rickey made into the HoF. That’s one of many great things about this magical 2009 season. But, the Saints winning the freakin’ Super Bowl is the no. 1 thing. You’re correct that it’s not everyday that a franchise gets to enshrine one of its best players, but it’s even less of an occasion when a franchise finally wins a Super Bowl. I also hope you’re being sarcastic.

I guess the convicts are really slow in FL, because it’s going to be 10 weeks before I get it! Can you imagine? It’ll be April before I get it. I’ll be sure to take a picture of it and post it here!

M- E That's incredible!!
Somehow a copy of it should find its way to Payton’s ofc or somewhere like that. Blow up a huge copy for the parade or for Mardi Gras. It’s really cool.

Hey if anyone has time
maybe they could write the names down. I can name close to 90% but the last 10% I am vague on or I am guessing and would love to be able to know.

Excellent Job, MtnExile
My mom and her husband would love a poster of this. They are big Beatles fan and this fit in with there house decor.
Hey Saintsational,
Do you have the capability of making this into a poster for Sale of course with MtnExile permission?
Beware Beatles' copyrights
I’d research first to see if this infringes on any copyright laws. He probably couldn’t legally sell it because of this.

The biggest problem wouldn't be copyright
The biggest problem would be resolution. In order to print this, you need a much higher resolution than you do for displaying on a computer screen. This would be a little over 3 inches square.
I’m thinking (really, right now, as I type this) of making a version about twice this size, suitable for a computer desktop…if anyone wants one. But that’s about as far as I could push the original image.

Did this get started after the the Beatles/Saints discussion a couple of weeks ago?
Yep

Thanks very much!
I just found Satchmo in there. I was afraid he got left out, but now I see him blowing that horn. I know he’s sitting up there on a cloud right now enjoying this great moment for his home city.
Who’s the hot blonde with the tassels on her boobies standing next to him?

That’s the Cupid Doll from Club 500. I forget her name at the moment. I’m surprised nobody has mentioned Reggie’s girlfriend.
