Anderson and Brees should be a first ballot additions.

I have no problems with those 3 being selected first.

The obvious.
We should never forget Archie.

The only ring Carl Smith will be associated with is the one in a toilet bowl!

Bobby Hebert once had Carl Smith on the radio show...

Carl Smith wouldn't say it, but according to Hebert, it was Jim Mora not Carl Smith who limited, restricted the playbook and the Saints success...

Hebert went on about Mora as the ultra-conservative one and that Carl Smith was a loyal assistant coach who wouldn't throw Mora under the bus as Mora had done to some of his assistants (i.e. Sidwell, Smith, et al)...

I use to really get frustrated with Smith's play-calling; when I heard that exchange, I tried to call into the show with no success as I wanted the radio station to put the discussion, exchange to catalog for Saints fans to reference...

Sometimes we never get the true story till later; in the words of the former coach, "you think you know, but you really don't know..."

Well, we now know Mora limited the very success he was trying to build, and so it was an enlightening show nonetheless...

Great Selections! But, No Saints Who Went to the Falcons for Five Years...

Sorry Morten, but you broke our hearts going to the Falcons even if Benson was a jackhole for not paying you what you did deserved...
