Re: Saints' Mt. Rushmore
Name your Saints Mt. Rushmore nominees | ProFootballTalk
The ongoing effort to secure nominees for each team’s four-person Mt. Rushmore continues. The NFC East is complete, and we’re now moving on to the NFC South. We’ll start with the Saints, since that’s the only team from this quartet to win a Super Bowl in the last decade. List below some names for us to consider. We’ll eventually fashion a list of eight finalists, where you can vote on four of them. |

Re: Saints' Mt. Rushmore
Roaf, Jackson, Manning, Payton, Brees ... it pays homage to Saints history, the HOF selectees, the SuperBowl era Saints ... little bit of defense, a little bit of offensive line & best coach in there for good measure also, .

The saavy businessman he is - no dispute there... But to threaten to relocate the team, taking advantage of the Post-Katrina environment was, at the very least, bad form... But to put him among the "honored" of the franchise is disingenuous... |

Re: Saints' Mt. Rushmore
Just a thought, should we segment the Rushmore into two sections, one on the field and one off? maybe have the players beneath and the non-players in a rock-encased suite looking down on them?
