well, the Super Bowl ad contest at least….
From ProFootballTalk.com:
The winner was/is Saints defensive back Usama Young. His ad, in which he talks about his time spent selling popcorn and candy at Redskins games while growing up, will be aired during the February 1 Super Bowl broadcast.
“I am thankful to have been blessed with the ability to play professional ball,” Young said in a release. “The fact that I can now share my story with millions of people across the world is an indescribable feeling.”
Here’s a link to the video: http://superad.nfl.com/players/?vid=saints_usama_young
Sadly, this is the only thing the Saints seem to be able to win.
Also sadly, the video is not very good. Jake Delhomme’s is better. Who dat.
In other Saints news, Gregg Williams is now our defensive coordinator! Pay no attention to the Jaguars defense he coached last year, he did well with the Redskins and Bills (though not as a head coach) and went to the Super Bowl with the Titans in 2000. Also, rumor is, he actually calls blitzes during real NFL football games. He’s known for running wacky hairbrained defensive schemes, so he should fit right in as a nice complement to our wacky haribrained offensive schemes.
Williams should run a 4-3 which I’m sure Jonathan Vilma is thankful for after the Jets and their switch to a 3-4.
I hope he knows how to coach defensive backs though. He’s going to need to.
Wow. Jason Witten’s was horrible.
