Joe Vitt is consigliere to New Orleans Saints, his 'newest family' | NOLA.com

Joe has stopped counting the practices, but his seasons as a football player and football coach add up to 28.

"Maybe the best way to put it is I've been in the game for more than 50,000 snaps," he said, mopping the steady flow of perspiration after he added to the number Thursday, focusing his attention on "my newest family," the New Orleans Saints linebackers, as they went through morning skirmishes against the Houston Texans.
Joe Vitt was one of Sean Payton's first hires in 2006. Payton was a brand new NFL head coach, and he wanted someone who had been around the block a few times.

"Retire? Like the guy at Little Big Horn, I want to die with my boots on. And the whistle around my neck."
