LaDainian Tomlinson, the NFL’s eighth leading rusher of all-time, was released by the San Diego Chargers just days ago shocking bewildered Charger fans everywhere
The move was one every one thought was coming after Tomlinson’s production declined over the last few seasons, he also refused to take a pay cut as he had the season before.
A day later the Philadelphia Eagles announced they plan to part ways with two-time Pro Bowl running back Brian Westbrook, hailed as one of the most versatile players in football today.
Now with both running backs slated to hit free agency March 5th would the Saints, or should the Saints, pursue signing either?
Since the decline [...]

The Saints announced today they have agreed to terms on a futures contract with former 49′ers full back Zak Keasey.
Keasey entered the NFL as undrafted free agent with the Washington Redskins in 2005 where he was converted from full back to linebacker making the active roster as a reserve.
In 2006 Keasey made the move to the 49′ers where he re-assumed his natural position of full back, he spent all of that season on the practice squad before being signed to the active roster in 2007.
Keasey was awarded the starting full back position in the pre-season before the start of the 2008 [...]

There is no doubt that Darren Sharper silenced critics who questioned whether the 34 year old could still make an impact after fading into near obscurity with the Minnesota Vikings when coming to the Saints before the 2009 season.
By now Sharper’s 2009 season is well known to all that follow the NFL, nine interceptions to co-lead the league three of which he returned for touchdowns, but the question of late is what exactly the Saints plan to do with him heading into free agency.
To franchise or not to frachise him, that was the real question for New Orleans.
Speculation ran rampant [...]

Now that the Saints have finally brought a Lombardi Trophy to the Big Easy it’s time to part ways with a darker team name that resided from a dreadful 1-15 season in 1980, the Aint’s, that was so bad it prompted fans to wear paper bags on their heads.
That’s not the case any longer after the Saints beat the Colts in Super Bowl XLIV, now everyone seems to be a fan of the black and gold.
In fitting fashion a classic New Orleans Jazz funeral will be held to bury the Aint’s and the paper bags once and for all. The [...]

Everyone seems to have a different opinion on what the Saints will do with safety Darren Sharper, who is scheduled to become a free agent officially on March 5th, although they have until February 25th to decide whether or not to franchise him.
Sharper quickly emerged as one of the Saints biggest play makers on defense during the 2009 season amidst questions if the 34 year old still had the ability to be an impact player after being cast off from the Minnesota Vikings.
Well Sharper more than proved he was still an impact player by co-leading the NFL with nine interceptions while setting a new [...]

Vilma arranged for each of his teammates to receive a bottle of Crown Royal Cask No. 16, an ultra premium whiskey that was recently named “Canadian Whisky of the Year” by Malt Advocate Magazine, in a personalized bag commemorating their historic season.

The New Orleans Saints franchise finally has a Lombardi Trophy to call their own after a 43 year hiatus, winning Super Bowl XLIV decidedly over the Indianapolis Colts 31-17.
New Orleans has successfully scrubbed away the label of a ”perpetually struggling” franchise and erased its name from the dubious list of teams never to have won a Super Bowl, distancing itself from the likes of the Cleveland Browns, Detroit Lions and Buffalo Bills.
Quarterback Drew Brees has finally found the elusive last piece to a hopeful Hall of Fame career with the win only validating his status as an elite NFL quarterback.
So where do they [...]

The Saints have done it! The Saints have done it! They are the Super Bowl Champs!
Let it sink in Who Dat nation, the Saints are WORLD CHAMPIONS!
It may have taken 43 years to accomplish the feat and the Saints may have once been the worst team in the league but from here on out they can never  be called the Aint’s again and fans will surely never wear paper bags again.
No one can ever argue that the Saints were not a team of destiny and if anyone picked against them they had to be crazy as it just seemed to come together for them all season long.
The Super Bowl [...]

Gotta love Saints DB Tracy Porter shaving “SB44″ and the Superdome in his dome. Just awesome.
