Preseason

Okay, I know the games don't really count and the first string doesn't play much but I still like watching the games.  Tonight is the boys...the New Orleans Saints. You can't live anywhere close to the home of the Saints and not be a fan.  It may not have been much fun being a fan when there were those calling them the "aints" but since the last three or four years, really ever since they came back to the dome after hurricane Katrina it has been exciting and then the Superbowl.  Living in a town that has a parade for everything, the parade after the Superbowl was amazing.  A friend of mine who went over and was in the madness said it was like a hurricane evacuation in reverse.  I love that image.  The highways leading in to town became parking lots. And the players road on the Mardi Gras floats throwing beads to crowds.  How cool is that.  I would love to see them do it again.  Geaux Saints!!
