this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Played in Jr High. I was just too small compared to other kids my age - they just kept knocking the hell out of me and I got sick of it. Thrived in Baseball as a 2nd bagger tho....

Re: Al Bundy Saints Fans?
Started playing during a high school year in Deville, Louisiana when I was 18 in -99. Took up playing again in Sweden in 2002 and played until 2012. Started at OLB in a 3-4 and later moved to DE then DT and finally OT in 2005. Made the Swedish national team in 2007 and played the World cup in Tokyo, Japan as a backup OL/ special teamer. Played the European championships in Frankfurt, Germany in 2010 as the starting LT.
Played both OL and DL in the club team and basically all the line positions. Been coaching on and off since 2005. Mostly youth players but adults too. |
W.T. Sherman is my favorite General. After all he did order Atlanta to be burned to the ground.

Re: Al Bundy Saints Fans?
I played PeeWee, JR High, High School and Small College Football.
I was blessed with 4.45 40 yard speed my senior year and could catch virtually anything thrown my way. I easily accumulated over 4300 yards receiving in my college career. I was picked with the 20th pick in the first round by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the NFL draft... Sadly... my professional career ended early one spring morning when I accidentally and suddenly woke up. My wife still thinks I could play an offensive lineman. ![]() ![]() |

Re: Al Bundy Saints Fans?
I played OG in high school, we won a 5A State Championship my junior year mostly played special teams. Played juco ball for a year, but I ran out of talent before the year was over.

Re: Al Bundy Saints Fans?
I played Jr and senior HS football. I played LB and center but at 5'7" 175 I didn't see the field much except for special teams. I did start a couple of games at center but unless I was pulling I had a hard time opening any holes.
I always thought I should have been a fullback. |

Re: Al Bundy Saints Fans?
Multi-sport athlete.
Tried our for football - WR and QB, but wasn't my thing at the time and wasn't focused. I probably smoked pot with Danno... Flag football champion teams at college Football is more interesting to me than any other sport. Saints fan since birth. Literally... My first real game was 3 years old w Pops. |

Re: Al Bundy Saints Fans?
Auspicious start as I was kicked out of equivalent to Pop Warner Midget at age 12 because I was already 6' 168# and sent to scrimmage with Bantam Leagues (14-16 yr olds) instead...
Topped out at 6' 1" 215# in HS even though me Dad was 6' 8" (hey, he married a 5' 3" highland she-elf)... End of Junior Year, Spring Game, after doing two rounds of Oklahomas, my best friend blew out his knee during Gator Rolls... All spring new coach and a guest veteran speaker driving on about teamwork, brotherhood, never leaving a man behind - well, being the idealist, my hubris & I handed that new coach my helmet rather than going on to drills and waited with my friend till Acadian finally showed... Following Spring, as a HS Senior, really got my feet under me and followed up on an invite to Northwestern Louisiana on Academic/Athlete Scholarship Weekend, amazed myself and Coach Goodwin staffers running a forty in Saucony running shoes, the ones with the tire rubber... that evening an assistant stopped by the dorm and said Coach was really looking for "high character" players he could rely on (someone had called my HS for some tape)... I never stepped onto the football field again...But I Do Love the Game and Love the Saints... Played some Pro/Am Summer League Basketball while at Tulane, Reilly Center - pretty intense, best shape of my life - that I do miss... That's it... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
