RE: Saints surpass club season ticket record with almost 55,
 

Seeing his press conference I think it's about time he avoids public speaking. Well, it was probably time ten years ago, but still...

I don't know if it's the booze or old age, but the man is barely audible.

That was funny to watch. don't think he'll stop trying to flash mic skills, but you are right...he should.

I sure wish I could contribute to the sales. Sucks to live on the other side of the country, but still trying to find ways to get to a game this year!
