Add to the list of odd events that has happened in Saints History.

I don't remember the year, just remember that we needed one win with two games left to reach the playoffs. We were playing the Redskins, on the second to last game and were down by less than a TD and driving late in the 4th quarter. We come up with this big play that puts us down near the goal line, but wait...there's a flag.

It seems that Dexter Manley spit on Jim Dombrowski, and when "Dumbo" retaliates, we draw a 15 yd. unsportsmanlike conduct penalty, negating the big play and the chance to win the game and advance...and of course we went on to lose the next game and sit home and watch.

If anybody remembers this, please step forward and let me know. I know I'm not just dreaming this up.
