Charles Grant Spending his Chedda'

I'm sure the people behind the scenes get overlooked all the time in professional sports. It's a nice gesture. Take it for what it was intended.

Yeah the guy did a nice thing for some people who don't get any credit for the organization's success. Classy Charles, very classy.

By the way, I'm going to go ahead and use this forum to reiterate how awesome Charles Grant is. I always blabber on about how he brings the energy to our defense, and I usually say some stuff about his solid statistics. But there was one thing I came across today that I hadn't realized. The guy has started every game since he's been a Saint. You know he gets banged up and stuff, but he brings it every Sunday. This guy is a stud, and I'm glad he's in the black and gold. That is all.

100 dollars a plate for 20 people is a great meal. nice deal. You got to remember the office grunts. His paper work wont get lost anytime soon.
Yep he is an old school type of player.

Well said. Grant made a nice gesture and didn't advertise it.

On a related story before DOGgate broke:

Michael "what a long summer" Vick donated $10,000 to the victim's families at Va Tech, his alma mater. People here in ATL went ballistic that he donated such a small amount.

My thought was, the families were not victims of a natural disaster or fire. Money was not needed, as was and is the case with Katrina, or Hugo, or now in Texas. The amount he gave didn't bother me, but the fact he didn't do it anonymously was just stupid.

office grunts ok... but why just the women?

jergensl · 06-19-2007, 04:47 PM

euph,
just shut up!

he was doing a nice thing for the ladies in the office.

were you not hugged enough as a child?
are you mad that grant didnt take you out to dinner?

just be happy that we do not have players going to jail and getting arrested.

Now that was rude!!!!! And totally uncalled for! Unless of course you were just kidding.If not hold you tongue. That isn't needed.

Do we not have a "Just ShutUp" award? LMAO! That is alittle rude though, but I like doing the award. Let's get that started to make it through the offseason. Who do you think should get a "Just Shutup" award in Louisiana sports? That would be a good poll.

joesam,

was my comment rude...yes...did i mean it to be...yes...why...because it was called for.

grant, behind the scenes, did a very nice thing for people who get very little respect and euph had the nerve to try to turn it into a negative.

so do i think that a guy taking an incredible positive thing and trying to turn it into a negative deserves a rude comment....absolutely!

It wasn't rude. Euphoria is annoying, continiously putting down anything Saints, case and point Grant buying lunch for the ladies in the office, and answering every other post with "power rankings".
