If you are into that sort of thing there are several casting companies in the New Orleans area where you can sign up. I’ll keep y’all posted. Probably a B movie but should be fun to watch none the less.

Aren’t you a teacher or something?

No. That's spkb25. The Dude is in the food industry. Much respect there.

I'm not really interested in seeing such a movie yet because I don't think the story is over. Brees' culture and graciousness is still going to linger with the Saints for some years even thought he's no longer playing, and we've still got Payton. I don't think the franchise is going to go back into the wilderness just yet (and for the most part, hopefully never will again).

I’m assuming it’s less about the franchise as a whole under Payton and more about their arrival to the city after Katrina. Rising from the ashes and Going from The Aints to a championship team that helps in the rebuilding of the city or some such. Post Brees can be part 2.

I’d love to play Tracy Porter in the film.

Read today it’s a Netflix movie titled The Home Team (could just be the “working title) and the dude from King of Queens and Mall cop will play the role of Payton... I don’t see any Academy Awards being thrown it’s way but it should be fun to watch.

I'm reading all sorts of comments from idiots claiming that it is wrong to be glorifying the purposeful injuring of opposing players. What dumba$$es. Hopefully this movie will dispel some of those lies. I read that Payton was given the screenplay and he made several corrections before returning it for production. I hope it makes Goodell out to be the idiot that he actually is.

"The only player carted off during a Saints game from 2009 through 2011 was former Saints running back Reggie Bush, who broke a leg during a 2010 Monday night game against the 49ers. So while there may have been a financial incentive for Saints defensive players to cause “cart-offs,” no one ever succeeded." - PFT
