    From a summary on SaintsReport here is the choice quote:
    (regarding 15 yard penalties and telling your players to pull up to avoid them) "When you put too much of that type of worry on a warrior's mind, he doesn't play all out," Williams said. "If it happens, it happens. And the only thing you'd like for me to say is that if it happens you hope he doesn't get back up and play again."

    There are many ways you can spin this quote. I took it, given the context of the mental aspect of the game, to mean that you don't want a player the caliber of Manning to be motivated by a late hit. Others took it as a jab on the press because of the part in bold.

    If we can stop Manning on four possessions, we can do this.

    Re: Saints vs. Colts

    Here is a letter making the rounds down here in BR:

    Dear Miami ,

    The Saints are coming. And so are we, their loyal, long-suffering and slightly discombobulated Super Bowl-bound fans.
    While there's still time to prepare -- although a few hard-core Who Dats will begin trickling in Monday, most of us won't arrive until Thursday or Friday -- we thought we'd give you a heads-up about what you should expect.
    First things first: You need more beer.
    Yeah, we know. You ordered extra. You think you have more than any group of humans could possibly consume in one week. Trust us. You don't.
    New Orleans was a drinking town long before the Saints drove us to drink. But it turns out beer tastes better when you're winning. (Who knew?) So let's just say we're thirsty for more than a championship; adjust your stockpiles accordingly.
    And look. When we ask you for a go-cup, be nice to us. We don't even know what "open container law" means. Is that anything like "last call"?
    It's Carnival season in New Orleans (that's Mardi Gras to you), and we'll be taking the celebration on the road. So don't be startled if you walk past us and we throw stuff at you; that's just our way of saying hello.
    Oh, and sorry in advance about those beads we leave dangling from your palm trees. We just can't help ourselves.
    February is also crawfish season, and you can be sure that more than one enterprising tailgater will figure out a way to transport a couple sacks of live mudbugs and a boiling pot to Miami.
    When the dude in the 'Who Dat' T-shirt asks if you want to suck da head and pinch da tail, resist the urge to punch him. He's not propositioning you. He's inviting you to dinner.
    And if you see a big Cajun guy who looks exactly like an old Saints quarterback walking around town in a dress ... don't ask. It's a long story.


    We know that crowd control is a major concern for any Super Bowl host city. Our advice? Put away the riot gear.
    Reason No. 1: Indianapolis is going to lose, and their fans are way too dull to start a riot.

    Reason No. 2: New Orleans showed the world on Sunday that we know how to throw a victory party. We don't burn cars. We dance on them.

    Reason No. 3: Even if we did lose, which we won't, leaving the stadium would be like leaving a funeral, and our typical response to that is to have a parade.

    Speaking of which: If you happen to see a brass band roll by, followed by a line of folks waving their handkerchiefs, you're not supposed to just stand there and watch. As our own Irma Thomas would say, get your backfield in motion.
    And hey, Mister DJ! Yes, we know you've already played that stupid Ying Yang Twins song 10 times tonight, but indulge us just one more time.
    To us, "Halftime (Stand Up and Get Crunk)" isn't just a song; it's 576 points of good memories. It's the sound of a Drew Brees touchdown pass to Devery Henderson, a Pierre Thomas dive for first down on 4th-and-1, a Garrett Hartley field goal sailing through the uprights in overtime.
    It's what a championship sounds like. You may get sick of hearing it. We won't. Encore, dangit.
    Inside Sun Life Stadium, you may find your ears ringing more than usual. We're louder than other fans. Seven thousand of ours sound like 70,000 of theirs.
    Don't believe us? Ask the 12th man in the Vikings huddle.
    Some people think it's just the Dome that heightens our volume. But you're about to discover a little secret: We can scream loud enough to make your head explode, indoors or out.

    It's not the roof. It's the heart.

    Well, OK, and the beer.

    Don't be surprised if there are more Saints fans outside the stadium than inside. A lot of us are coming just to say we were part of history, even if we can't witness it up close. The Saints are family to us, and you know how it is with family: We want to be there for them, whether they really need us or not. Because we know our presence will mean something to them, whether they can see us or not.


    Come to think of it, seeing as how you're taking us in for the week, we pretty much regard you as family, too. So we're warning you now: If you're within hugging distance, you're fair game.
    Hugging strangers is a proud Who Dat tradition, right up there with crying when we win. Most sports fans cry when their teams lose. Not us. We've been losing gracefully and with good humor for 43 years. Tragedy and disappointment don't faze us. It's success that makes us go to pieces.
    Hurricane Katrina? We got that under control. The Saints in the Super Bowl? SOMEBODY CALL A PARAMEDIC!!!

    So anyway, don't let the tears of joy freak you out. We're just ... disoriented.

    OK. Let's review:

    Order more beer. Throw me something, mister. Suck da heads. Wear da dress. Stand up. Get crunk. Hug it out. Protect your eardrums. Pass the Kleenex. Hoist the trophy.

    See you at the victory party.


    Faithfully yours,



    The Who Dat Nation

    LOL
    Dawgmatic, with that drinking game, even an old frat rat like me would end up in the hospital or dead. Any one of those would finish off a good bottle of whiskey.

    Re: Saints vs. Colts

    What about taking a shot every time they mention how Drew is great and has had a great year, but Manning is God's gift to everything football. I will never get used to that. Favre and Warner were supposed to be the greatest at beating our blitz and we tortured them. I hope the same for Peyton.

    I know people from N.O. and LA in general think we drink a lot of beer. I use to think the same thing, until I drank with people from Wisconsin. They are in the same league with Germans. In Louisiana I think we will party at the drop of a hat and the whole it's 5 o'clock somewhere rule could mean 5AM but a far as the amount of beer consumed we are no where near the category of these bottomless pits from Wisconsin.

    Actually, in New Orleans, it is MUCH more about alcohol/mixed drinks than beer. When I used the letter to send out, I substituted alcohol for beer. Made a lot more sense, since the Cocktail was invented in N.O..............

    Doesn't matter Champ I was just making reference to the post above. I have no doubt that people in New Orleans invented a good time but when it comes to alcohol comsumption the Badgers are unbeatable.
