When the NFL released the official 2014 schedule on Wednesday, I immediately looked at the Saints schedule. Five games sticks out to me most for several reasons.
The Atlanta Falcons offer sheet to restricted free agent safety Rafael Bush is worth $4.5 million. The New Orleans Saints have until Tuesday to match, and Bush has let it be known what he hopes happens.
What a difference a year makes. 2012 was the season where the Falcons stayed healthy and the ball bounced the Red and Black way, while for the Black and Gold it was a season to forget. Atlanta finished with a 13-3 season that led to them hosting the NFC Championship game and coming within 10 yards of playing in New Orleans for a Super Bowl. We don’t need to go back to how we would have all felt se
A sports radio station in Atlanta aired a three minute segment this morning, pretending to talk to former New Orleans Saints safety Steve Gleason. Gleason suffers from ALS, and communicates by using a computer. The morning show recorded a segment speaking to a computer, claiming it was Gleason. Allegedly, one line used in the disgraceful bit was of "Gleason" saying, "I might be dead by Thursday." This is disgusting.
It was a nice run for Hank Williams, Jr. He blew it earlier this year and we all know since then the Monday Night Football openers have, well, STUNK!
That's all about to change though.
Corporate logos are designed to help us remember the company but sometimes those companies get a little sneaky. Upon closer inspection you might see things in these logos that you never consciously knew were there but maybe your mind's eye made the connection and that's why you bought the product.
Well it's time for THE Rivalry to renew as the New Orleans Saints and Atlanta Falcons do battle Sunday. All week Saints players and coaches expressed not only what the game means in terms of their goal of winning the NFC South, but what it means to Saints fans.
