Saints Training Camp Day 3 - Sunday Brunch Edition
Well, Satch and Andrew have set the bar pretty high so far in Dave's absence (nice work, fellas). I will do my best to keep the quality and quantity right up there with the Best of the Best.
No practices scheduled for this morning, so until the wrap-ups from the afternoon session appear, you'll have to snack on these tasty tidbits of Saints-related stories and information.
Grab another beverage and/or piece of toast, follow the jump, then sit back and enjoy!
This image was on the Saints team site, and I thought it'd be sweet for us to see our boys practicing under this reminder of what was accomplished last season. And it's not dwelling on the past as the large poster is BEHIND the team as they practice and move forward into the "all new and start again" 2010 and beyond.

NFL Network Sunday Afternoon Specials
Wondering what to watch this afternoon? NFL Network is airing the NFCCG, followed by SB 44, followed by the Sound FX shows from Conference Championship Weekend and the Super Bowl. If you have never seen Sound FX, it is an awesome show that rolls game highlights with audio from mic'ed up players and coaches and local team broadcast crews. I have all of these shows saved on my DVR. This link takes you to their schedule page, which stays current to real time.

The Picture
I like the ring, but I still haven’t forgiven Benson for kicking us in the nads after hurricane Katrina by trying to move the team. Every time I see that fat effer I am reminded that he has no loyalty to the people of New Orleans.
"Why do you even ponder passing? I mean, you can take a knee and try a 56 yard field goal! This is not Detroit man, this is the Superbowl!" -- Paul Allen's call after Tracy Porter intercepted Brett Favre in NFCCG
Although...
If someone could photoshop his middle finger on the photo. It would be an excellent rebuttal to the Vikings trolls I am sure we will get leading up to the game.

He COULD’NT do it with the index and middle fingers, a peace sign. That would have been unRepublican.

Oh, he wanted to show the ring. I get it. Still, how convenient.

Sean Payton and the players need to focus on the upcoming season and defending the title but I don’t.

LOL
Nice observation! I agree that it’s still impossible to trust him. Of course, billionaires don’t become billionaires by making trustworthiness their top priority. I suppose we could do a lot worse than Tommy Boy. I wonder how Rita will rule the roost once Tom goes off to that great bank vault in the sky. Call me crazy, but I think she possesses a little more of a soul and conscience than her father. We already know she possesses a lot more in the looks department.

"As soon as Tony (Dungy) said we had no chance, I knew we had 'em right where we wanted 'em"--Coach Sean Payton right after Super Bowl XLIV with the Lombardi Trophy firmly in hand. WHO DAT!!

I thought it was a double bird.
Want to go to the Saints vs. Cowboys game? I've got an extra ticket.
speaking of rings
do you think those guys wear them every day?

I think that what we've failed to consider here is that he might be shaking his fist at a cloud...
