Hargrove Getting Some Love

Mounting outrage, protests make this the year of the fan

" My midseason comeback player of the year pick is Anthony Hargrove, the Saints' versatile defensive lineman who overcame personal demons and addiction to fight his way back in the league. He's starting now for an undefeated team, he has blossomed personally and physically with lots of love from his teammates, the Saints coaches and staff (helping him get to meetings, embracing him despite problems in his past), and got the game ball on defense when the Saints defeated the Dolphins. The guy was writing letters to every team in the league from a halfway house about six months ago, hoping someone would take a chance on him, and he has rewarded the Saints both on the field and off thus far. This is a tremendous feel-good story and I wish him all the best as he continues to forge a new life for himself. ..."

He has definitely been playing well. Glad to see he has turned his life around and is playing lights out. He's been a huge boost to the D-line.

Quite a few of us saw this as an good sleeper signing last off season. I'm glad he's not squandering his second chance and glad he's wearing our colors on Sundays.

Lets hope it continues. Those Demons never stop tapping you on your shoulder hoping you fail.

Definitely a player who has contributed admirably and was thought to be a forgotten entity in the league. Happy for him and keep it up big guy.
