Thoughts and prayers to his family. I use to like it when he would kind heartedly mess with Buddy. It would put a smile on my face when there wasn't much to smile about concerning Saints football.

A lot of the old timers are starting to slip away. All the originals are old men now. When I think about all the hard core fans I knew who never got to see the Saints win it all....
Man, feeling old. |
