Saints’ players will need to adjust to play at Mile High Stadium

I"ve been in Denver many times, and while I"m not exactly doing a lot of physical stuff when I"m there, I don't really notice the altitude and thin air all that much. I guess it hits everyone differently. And yeah, I'm smoker too.

Denver is not so bad...

My first trip to Colorado was to Colorado Springs. Went hiking with the dogs and thought I was going to have to carry one of them back to the truck.

Think with the conditioning the guys go through they are in a lot better shap to handle it that most. If they have a couple of days i think they will be fine. Take a few extra bottles of Oxygen though.

It will affect every individual differently.

It's really not bad. I live in Idaho. You just accept the fact that the air is thinner. And move on.

I had altitude sickness once, skiing Purgatory. Never had it anywhere else I went skiing over the years but that one time was miserable.

Good that they are getting time to adjust.

I haven't been there in over ten years but it was a beautiful place to be. I was a little winded on a hike but not overly so. A couple of days can make a big difference.
