A group of local third and fourth graders will get to workout with Saints players as part of the kickoff event this morning. The NFL is launching the program in New Orleans, but some of the elite players from across the NFL are involved. Hall of Famer Michael Haynes, now NFL Vice-President of Player and Employee Development, says a number of big name players are helping encourage kids and their parents to "get up and play an hour a day." He says it features "Tom Brady of the Patriots, Steven Jackson of the Panthers, Tony Romo of the Cowboys and Reggie Bush in New Orleans." Officials with NFL Play 60 say studies show that nearly 31 percent of children and teens in America are either overweight or at risk of becoming overweight. In New Orleans, Haynes says they'll renovate the Lakeview Playground, destroyed by Katrina. "We're going to be out building playgrounds and fun centers for kids." But this is how I read it… "Saints fans and NFL want Saints to play more The NFL and the Saintsfans today announce "NFL Play 60", a national campaign aimed at getting the Saints Team active for at least 60 minutes a day. A group of local third and fourth graders will get to workout with Saints players as part of the kickoff event this morning. The NFL is, OBVIOUSLY, launching the program in New Orleans, but some of the elite players from across the NFL are involved. Hall of Famer Michael Haynes, now NFL Vice-President of Player and Employee Development, says a number of big name players are helping encourage THE SAINTS TEAM to "get up and play an hour a day. ESPECIALLY SUNDAYS." He says it features "Tom Brady of the Patriots, Steven Jackson of the Panthers, Tony Romo of the Cowboys and TOM BENSON in New Orleans." Officials with NFL Play 60 say studies show that nearly 31 percent of THE SAINTS TEAM are either UNDERPERFORMING or at risk of becoming UNDERPERFORMERS. In New Orleans, Haynes says they'll renovate the Saints Playground, destroyed by Indy, Tampa Bay, TN & Carolina. "We're going to be out building playgrounds and fun centers for the team." |
