The Saints got off to a fast start today against the Buccaneers and were brought back to earth thanks to a Drew Brees INT. In between I caught this footage of Saints players grooving to the stadium music right before kicking off to the Bucs.
There are plenty of silver-lining, glass-half-full types who point out positive things that resulted from the failure of government-built flood protection in New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina in 2005. For me, one of those positives is that in 2006 when the Saints returned home to the Superdome they became the NFL team with the best song, U2 & Green Day's stellar remake of The Skids' The Saints are Coming. Granted, we already had the best song with When the Saints Go Marching In, but Bono and Billy Joe Armstrong have the edge (pun intended) when it comes to a 21st century rallying cry.
