Ladies and gentleman, the moment I am sure many of you have been waiting for has arrived. We are now ready to begin the selection process and choose the running back for our CSC all-time Saints team. This may not be as hot a topic as all-time Saints quarterback (coming soon!) but I definitely expect some good discussion and argument today. Just keep it clean and respectful. Or maybe I'm totally wrong and this is a no-brainer.
Below is a list of players I've researched and deemed worthy of inclusion in our discussion of great Saints running backs. As usual I will leave it up to you guys, the readers, to nominate any other players you feel should be included or tell me why the ones nominated don't deserve to be.
The poll will open at 6am Central tomorrow morning and will be open for exactly 48 hours, ending on Friday, July 30th.
I now open it up for any other nominations of players that you just can't believe I missed or to have one of the players listed below removed from tomorrows ballot. There very well may be a glaring omission or a player you just can't believe I missed. Talk it out below. I would also love to hear some personal rumination from our readers who've actually watched these guys play. Remember, this isn't just about choosing a player but allowing readers to share their memories of these players and educating those of us who never had a chance to see them.
