New Orleans Saints Quarterback Drew Brees
Post-Practice Media Availability
Thursday, September 26, 2013

Do you remember your first Monday night game with San Diego? What do you remember about that specifically?

“Yeah. I guess it would’ve been probably ’03. (The) game moved to Tempe because of the fires. It was Junior Seau’s first game back against the Chargers. He was one of the linebackers for Miami, he had just gone that year. It was supposed to be his homecoming to San Diego. The fires started late Saturday night and, all of the sudden, Sunday had swept into the city. It was scary. They were evacuating everywhere. A bunch of neighborhoods were burning down. We were trying to figure out, number one, where to play the game, and number two where we were going. We ended up going to Arizona State’s stadium in Tempe, Arizona, which I guess would have been the Arizona Cardinals stadium at the time as well before their new one. It was free. They let everybody into that game for free. It was kind of a wild atmosphere. I don’t remember how many Charger fans or Dolphins fans were there, just a lot of NFL fans. It was kind of wild, they just cheered for everything. (It was) Kind of like being in London I guess; they just wanted to see action. Obviously that game didn’t go the way that we wanted. We ended up losing that game; I didn’t play very well. I think our record was 1-5 or maybe 1-6 at the time. The very next week, we went to Chicago and I got benched in the third quarter of that game. I was benched for five games. That was really a defining moment and the turning point in my career: that whole experience, that year, all of the adversity. I remember all of those (times) very well.”

And Drew, we love watching you play on Monday night.

I would love to see us slice up the Dolphins something fierce. Nothing against the Dolphins, but the world needs to know a few things. Kind of like that MNF game against the Patriots in 09.

Considering Drew is 6-2 in the Super-dome on MNF, 7-0 since 2009, and 10-2 since he became a Saint.

I understand.

Yeah, but he'll pee all over himself. I can watch on Sunday. Besides when the Saints are hot the fan base is huge.
