The tuesday before Ash Wednesday, Fat Tuesday ... Mardi Gras ... a Christian holiday and popular cultural phenomenon dating back thousands of years to pagan spring and fertility rites ... being from the north, a holiday I probably would never have paid much attention to if it wasn't for a simple, fruit-filled donut.

I know what you're thinking, WTH is a Lions fan doing blogging on a Saints forum about the Forty-Niners? Well, let me tell you . . . being from the Motor City, I'm opinionated, never at a loss for words and in the unique postion of having been beaten by both New Orleans and San Francisco . . . so, without further ado, I would like to thank my hosts at Black and Gold for giving me the opportunity to write this blog and finally realize a lifelong dream of being a 'beat writer', lol.

If the SAINTS win SUPER BOWL 46, How many more CHAMPIONSHIPS do you think we would need to be considered a DYNASTY. I understand the challenge of actually going out there and WINNING multiple RINGS, but sometimes they make the SAINTS work extra hard to get our just DUE recognition. What do yall think???????

Rest in Peace Father Boeshans

Posted 09-02-2010 at 08:06 PM by Halo (Nose Bleed)

He was a mentor to so many, a leader, a pioneer who built churches, schools and parishes... and if he read this he would laugh and say he was just an ordinary man.

For anyone in New Orleans or anywhere who knew him or learned from his life and teachings, our mutual friend and mentor Father Francis G. Boeshans has passed away.

Please pass this message along with your prayers and feel free to link back to this blog post for information.

Rest in Peace...
