The Saints come home to a heart warming party: and hang out with grateful, while a little tipsy, fans of the city's historically maligned, now proud franchise. If this doesn't bring a tear to your eye, you dont like football. It brought a couple to mine, and I am a Philadelphia phan.
Good stuff. By next year, Reggie Bush may no longer have a Heisman, but he might have a Super Bowl appearance. This is a team that has no excuse to not take it to the next level next season. Imagine the party then!!!

That was one hell of a story. A real tear jerker.

Good story. I hope the Saints can get some linebacker and secondary help in the offseason. If so, I see no reason why they couldn't or shouldn't be considered as one of the top contenders in the NFC.

Great story and we have up here a few classless Bears Fans that are complete AH's I wouldn't believe it normally but I saw a Houston Chicago game back in '89 where a fight broke out after the bears lost can't apologize because I can't speak out for all Bears Fans but it was truly not true Bears fans that did this to end this I am so happy the saints fans still support their team and I wish them the best of luck in the future except when they play the Bears Go Saints

To go from not having a home game last year and thinking about re-locating even, to 1 game from the Superbowl? I mean come on...this has got to be one of the best stories in sports history. You can make a movie out of this.

good for those fans that have stuck with the team through thick and thin... and an "adda boy" for the coach who brought them here!!!
