Political Quotes

“Let me just start by saying in New Orleans we have what is known as the Who Dats. That is the people that have been loyal since day one. We now have in New Orleans a group called the Renew Dats, which is the group that wasn't sure every year, and the Saints had to try and prove themselves. And we now have a group of people in New Orleans and Louisiana and in the South and in the Nation for that matter called the New Dats, who have now become believers in the Saints. My 92-year-old mother-in-law has been a fan of the Manning family, since she comes from North Mississippi, and it took her until Super Bowl Sunday morning to reconcile how she handled the daughters, particularly the one that lives in Louisiana, my wife, and the New Orleans Saints versus the Baltimore Colts and Peyton Manning. That Sunday morning she called her daughter and said, "Peachy, I figured it out. Peyton has a Super Bowl ring, so I will pull for the New Orleans Saints today." And Peachy turned around and said, "It looks like we're going to win it." So with that, New Orleans has seen an historic occasion. It is euphoric in its mood. It is in a new time, if you would, because of the excitement, the love of the franchise, the team players themselves, the coaches, and the people that have made this such a great and wonderful year.”
