Saints News 7/14/13: Morstead AND Roby Get Married

Sportsnola's started a list of most memorable losses by the Saints - starting with #75 - I don't even know where to start in lamenting this...then some blogger says the Falcons have a history of dominating the Saints, and another one calls Big Sed a "hidden gem" for the Bear's defense. Excuse me while I kiss this guy...Also, Twitter embed codes failed me sporadically, so you'll see some old school-style tweets in this mess.

Morstead got married last night. Will the ball and chain interfere with his swing?
